Apprentice in Death

Another excellent installment in the series. Emphasis is on the policework, without any major life changes for the main characters. A bit of design porn is slipping into the novels (Eve's office and Eve & Roarke's bedroom are being redesigned), which is major turnoff for me but it's tempered by Eve's bemused attitude towards the changes.

A few books ago I was worried that this series was finally losing steam after more than 20 years, but I find that although new In Death releases are no longer auto-buys for me, they are still welcome auto-reads.
