I am new to both Prime Suspect and Lynda La Plante, don’t come at me. 🙈
Over the next twelve months I am taking part in #teamtennison where I am reading the back catalogue of the Tennison novels until the final one is released next July. 

I absolutely loved this book, it had me hooked instantly. I found it hard to put down.  I really liked the setting back in 1973 in London and the fashion descriptions. 

It was a time when female police officers were not treated equally. I liked that Jane had a friend and an ally in Kath. 

I really liked Jane, from the start you can see that she is tough and has her own mind and she wants to succeed. 

I was fully immersed in this story and the ending blew my mind I didn’t see that coming at all!! 

I’m excited to jump into book two now.
