About this listen

Jane Tennison must navigate the salacious world of theatre to solve a brutal murder in the heart of London's West End, in the brilliant new thriller from the Queen of Crime Drama, Lynda La Plante.

Things can't get much worse for Detective Jane Tennison. Unceremoniously kicked off the adrenaline-fuelled Flying Squad, she now plies her trade in Gerald Road, a small and sleepy police station in the heart of London's affluent Knightsbridge.

With only petty crime to sink her teeth into, Tennison can feel her career slowly flatlining. That is until the discovery of the most brutal murder Jane has ever seen: Charlie Foxley has been found viciously beaten to death with a cricket bat - his body dismembered and disembowelled.

As a big-time theatrical agent, Foxley had a lot of powerful friends - but just as many enemies. And alongside her old friend DS Spencer Gibbs, Tennison must journey into the salacious world of show business to find out which one is the killer, before they strike again.

Great audio book!

Excellent narration and interesting plot. I’m a big fan of Helen Mirren but the book is so much better than the tv series. Looking forward to the next Jane Tennison instalment!

Sexist

It was absolutely psinful to listen to the disgusting and demeaning treatment of the previously strong & independent Female character & then to end with her being relieved at last because an old beau shows up unannounced just put the topper on such a terribly sad & sexist story - what the heck happened to this author?!
