Explanation In Pursuance Of Books Above Suspicion (Anna Travis #1)

Young Anna Travis has been assigned to her first murder case - a series of killings that has shocked even the most hardened of detectives. They started eight years ago - now the body count is up to six. The method of killing is identical, the backgrounds of the girls identical - all drug users and prostitutes.

Then a seventh body is found. The modus operandi is the same, but the victim is a young student with the 'face of an angel'. The profile of the murderer has changed dramatically.

Determined to earn the respect of her male colleagues, Anna stumbles on a vital piece of information which links one man to the killings, a much-loved actor on the brink of international stardom. His arrest would create a media frenzy. But if he were found innocent, his wouldn't be the only career over - Anna's hard fought for reputation would be destroyed once and for all...

Rate Based On Books Above Suspicion (Anna Travis #1)

The story line was intriguing, I was rooting for Langton and Travis since the start of the book but unfortunately things didn't turn out as I had wanted them to.There were certain parts in the book where I just had to keep reading and even got a little scared when certain things would happy.I would take the book with me when I would make a cup of tea so I could carry on reading!It made me laugh and made me shocked sometimes and certain sentences that one of the characters would say.It was truly

Okay...so maybe not amazing, but still a five star in my book.Really enjoyed this police procedural. Was looking to experience a new author in the mystery genre, when I came across this book in my local library.Stylistically, this is different from many of the books I usually enjoy. The writing is pretty basic. Heavy on dialogue. A little detached and distant. That said, I enjoyed the characters and the systematic unraveling of the mystery, which is less about who-done-it and more about

A terrible book but a good read. Terrible for the wet-blanket heroine who every male in the vicinity likes to grab / scoop up / describe in childlike terms while she tries to determine how attracted she is to them rather than whether Miss Knee should have a quick word with Mr Groin.Terrible for the too-vivid descriptions of the crimes and the corpses, and the casual way everyone agrees that sex workers are terrible people who deserve horrible deaths. Terrible for a plot that demands an

I feel that this book was OK. It did not have me riveted or gripping my seat. I especially don't like that the killer was revealed very early in the book. I kept hoping that La Plante was building Daniels as the killer to later twist the plot and reveal a killer we least expected. I like some level of suspense and this story was lacking in that department. La Plante is a very good writer and the story had a good rhythm, but I found myself bored with the characters and bored with the story at

Since this was British, I can say I quite enjoyed this hearty tome of police procedural derring-do! Rather old chap.As it's the first novel in a series, the strands that are woven seemed a bit overwrought and needlessly complex. I mean, one doesn't need daddy issues, mommy issues, rookie nerves, boss crushes AND solving mysteries allinonenovel! But one can see how they will be used later in the series as the characters and story lines develop. I am not sure the author needed to lay quite so much

I had looked forward to reading this book, as I had heard good things about the author. Unfortunately, the writing is uneven. Characters will be having a conversation and then abruptly seem to be across the room or out the door. It's like watching a stop motion film with some of the frames removed. I wasn't irritated by the main character's naïveté, like many of the reviewers. The other characters in the book seem to see her as unprofessional, too, but it's hard to tell because you are getting

I enjoyed reading this book and it shows how Anna first meets langton. I don't really get what she sees in him-rude, has a temper and no patience bt each to their own. Thought th lead up to who did the deed and why was good and it was a bit worrying how willing langton was to use anna as bait The only issue I had was anna is described in the book as a red head and he once refferred to her as his carrot top but in the front cover the lady hasa blond hair!
