Origin in Death - J.D. Robb ... Dallas tracks the cunning, cold-blooded killer of a father and son. A pioneer of modern reconstructive and cosmetic surgery, Dr. Wilfred B. Icove, is found dead in his office – murdered in a chillingly efficient manner: one swift stab to the heart. Struck by the immaculate condition of the crime scene, Dallas suspects a professional killing. Security disks show a stunningly beautiful woman calmly entering and leaving the building – the good doctor’s final appointment. Known as 'Dr. Perfect,' the saintly Icove devoted his life to his family and his work. His record is clean. Too clean for Dallas. She knows he was hiding something and suspects that his son – and successor – knows what it is. Then, like father, like son, the young Dr. Icove is killed…with the same deadly precision. But who is the mystery woman – and what was her relationship with the good doctors? While her husband, Roarke, works behind the scenes, Dallas follows her darkest instincts into the Icoves’ pasts. What she discovers are men driven to create perfection – playing fast and loose with the laws of nature, the limits of science, and the morals of humanity.

Introduction I’ve noticed quite a few books by J D Robb aka Nora Roberts recently and decided to try one out, although I don’t really know much about the author.

Not being keen on science fiction, I would have steered well clear of this. On top of that, there wasn’t much else to recommend it. The author The American author Nora Roberts has written over 100 novels, 86 ...

The best start to a Grisham book I have read A few of the twists can seem to be a little far fetched
