Book #49 was Holiday in Death, the 7th book in J.D. Robb’s In Death series. The back of the book reads:

Futuristic cop Eve Dallas is back on the job. This time it’s Christmas in New York, and all the lonely hearts are easy pickings for a serial killer spreading death through a dating service.

I was in need of an Eve and Roarke fix, and this did it! I think this is one of the better ones I’ve read. The emotions surrounding the Christmas season give it a little bit of an extra kick.
