I received She’s Out by Lynda La Plante through Bookish First. I was excited to receive the She’s Out because I know La Plante as the author of the Jane Tennison Prime Suspect series. Those books were made into a TV series I watched on Masterpiece Mystery. She’s Out is the third in a series featuring Dolly Rawlins; the three books include Widows, Widows II, and She’s Out.
She’s Out features Dolly Rawlins who is leaving prison after serving eight of her nine-year conviction for killing her husband. She has been a model prisoner. In fact, she has become like a mother to many of the young women, especially those who have babies and must give them up. Dolly is thinking of opening a home for the children of women imprisoned when she is released.
Readers also meet several other characters from Dolly’s past---some friends and some foes. Will Dolly’s dream of opening a home for the children of imprisoned women come true, so does she have some other plan in mind? Or is that a cover plan?
La Plante writes with wit, and she keeps readers wondering what can happen next. The women in her stories are gutsy and strong. Dolly has the means to fulfill her plan because she stashed some stolen diamonds before the police found her and she went to prison.
Dolly plans to retrieve the diamonds and go on with her life on the outside. What can derail Dolly’s plans? Plenty. Read She’s Out to discover the whole story because the plot turns and twists enough to keep readers in suspense.
