Above Suspicion
|
| | | The creator of the blockbuster "Prime Suspect" TV series launches a new series with her most compelling female detective since Jane Tennison.
Annotation:
The acclaimed writer of the PRIME SUSPECT British television show continues in that same successful vein with this page-turning police procedural, the first in a projected new series. Detective Chief Inspector Langton takes on rookie detective Anna Travis, daughter of his deceased mentor, on the team investigating a serial rapist/killer responsible for the deaths of six middle-aged prostitutes, and more recently, a 17-year-old student. Evidence points to a popular movie star, who tries to charm Anna out of her suspicions.

"With crime lab authenticity, a sympathetic heroine and an affecting undercurrent of May-December romance...this spellbinder spirals down to an edge-of-the-seat denouement." 10/03/2005Kirkus
"La Plante...has given us a smart, plucky series protagonist who's enormously likable despite, or because of, her frailties. Think Jane Tennyson in her salad days." 10/01/2005 Entertainment Weekly
"[A] zippy new mystery....[A] doozy of a prime suspect....[La Plante's heroine Anna] Travis is a nifty new creation, a plausible successor to the majestically brusque Jane Tennison." - Jennifer Reese 12/23/2005 |
