HAUNTED IN DEATH

The most recent in the Lieutenant Eve Dallas futuristic mysteries involves a new homicide that is connected to the murder of a young, talented singer that occurred in the 1960s. Dallas has to connect the dots and in the process deal with hauntings, curses, and ghosts. Susan Ericksen does a good job with the characters' voices, delivering an especially strong Irish brogue for Eve's husband, Roarke. However, even the best performance can't overcome the slimness of the plot and the overemphasis on ballistics. This is definitely the weakest title in the series and may appeal only to the most diehard fans. S.S.R. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine [Published: FEB/ MAR 07]
