In Deadly Celebration , the 37th book in J.D. Robb's Deadly series, protagonist Eve Dallas takes on the investigation of a couple's murder. But what happens when their son is the prime suspect?
Eve Dallas has much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. Willing to leave behind the tragic memories of her childhood, the lieutenant prepares to welcome her multi-billionaire husband Roarke's large Irish family for the holiday celebrations. Additionally, Eve and Roarke will receive awards from the New York Police Department.
But other couples don't have as much reason to celebrate. The Reinhold home served as the scene of a gruesome murder. The couple's final moments of terror are recorded in every bloody stain left at the crime scene.
Friends of the couple are stunned and heartbroken by the evidence that points to Jerard “Jerry” Reinhold, their 26-year-old son, as the only suspect.
Since childhood, Jerry was known for his difficult personality, with aggressive and exaggerated attitudes, but no one imagined that he would commit a crime as atrocious as killing his own parents.
Now he knows what he's capable of and plans to eliminate all those who have humiliated and belittled him. As the festivities begin, Eve is desperate to identify the next victim on Jerald's long list so she can stop the killing spree. While Eve races against time to track down all the potential victims, Jerry seems to always be one step ahead of the lieutenant.
