LaPlante has done it again with her latest thriller BURIED. Rose cottage belies its name when after burning down a corpse is found in the charred remains. The team finds not only the word pervert painted in red above the hearth but a fireplace full of the charred stacks of cash. Could this be connected with a '95 case, the biggest train robbery in the UK where 30 million went missing and there were no arrests?

When we're introduced to Jack Warr and his wife Maggie, we know that Jack will be a fascinating DC--good at what he does, an exceptional eye for detail, a natural ability to talk to people, but absolutely no ambition. What will he do with this case? I love a protagonist with a great skill set but a major flaw.

I can't wait to read the rest.
