Jane Tennison, thrown into the world of the theatre by the discovery of the body of theatrical agent Charlie Foxley in his Knightsbridge home, must find a killer before he strikes again.
Although this is the sixth story in the Jane Tennison series, it does seem as if the story will work as a stand-alone. The characters are well-developed; the compelling plot pulls the reader into the telling of the tale.
However, this intriguing introduction raises several questions . . . .
Is there something more to Jane’s dismissal from her former position with the Flying Squad?
Why does a theatrical agent have SO many enemies [if we are to believe his former business partner]?
Why does James Myers seem so unconcerned about the sudden and vicious death of his business partner?
This excerpt suggests a strong police procedural with some gritty moments, a compelling mystery, and a chance to learn a bit more about Jane Tennison. I look forward to reading this book.
