Thankless in Death by J.D. Robb (2013)

It has been a while since I have read a J.D. Robb book, so the lives of Lt. Eve Dallas and Roarke have moved forward. Apparently Roarke found a slew of relatives back in Ireland and they are visiting New York for Thanksgiving. It was fun to see Eve still getting used to the idea that she has a family that care for her, and how they made Roarke's mansion full of laughter and joy, whereas it was usually just Roarke, Eve and Summerset. This is one of the things I like about this series, that there is an evolution in the characters, the setting in which the murder mystery is set.

The murderer in this one is one of the creepiest characters I remember. Jerry believes the world owe's him everything, and when things don't quite go the way he wants, he is never to blame - it is always someone else, often someone who actually did love and care for him. He starts with his parents, and Dallas figures out who he is fairly early on, the trick is to find him and to get him before he kills others on his list of people at fault.
