This week, we give you Part 2 of our review of "Bonded in Death." In this part, the plan comes together and after a few mishaps (where Eve gets shot AT, not shot), the NYPSD finally captures Conrad Potter.

Speaking of Conrad Potter, he is going to go down in "Podcast in Death" history as one of our least favorite villains. Among other things, he's a bigoted wanker, and a privileged fuck, and we really hate him.

Some great moments here, including Eve and Roarke dismantling a bomb, and the whole crew (and Roarke) breaking into Conrad Potter's home to save a child he had kidnapped (Potter is the absolute worst). Potter calling Eve the "C" word, and earning a kidney punch from Roarke.

The book is aptly named because we see how Summerset and the rest of "The Twelve" had formed such a tight bond. BUT...is this the book where Eve and Summerset finally bond??

It's finally here! We're finally reviewing "Bonded in Death"! And we had so much to say about it, we had to turn this into a Two Part Review.

The theme of this book is "Trust," and trust us, it's a very, very, dense book. We learn so much about Summerset's background (and Eve does too, once she finally gets around to talking to him!), and the case itself it pretty complicated. Although, our killer in this one is pretty basic. He's essentially a sexist, bigoted ass hat, who does some really horrible things. This is why the end of the book was so very satisfying.

A LOT of touching moments in this book, and a LOT of really funny moments. The book is going to be on the list of our favorites of the whole series.

But, again, this is Part 1, so, we cover the first 12 chapters, learn a lot about Summerset's past, and figure out a bunch of things about the killer in order to move on to the second part, which is finally taking him down.

Look, we know that most...if not all...billionaires today are horrible humans. And right now in the world of fiction, and most specifically Romance fiction, people are starting to call for the end of the "Billionaire Hero" trope.

We are here to make the case that Roarke is a different kind of billionaire. One that, while he occasionally does things that we're not happy about, he's the kind of person that real life billionaires should strive to be like.

So, in this episode, we talk about all of the ways that Roarke uses his billions to help people and make the world a better place.
