Blood Line (Anna Travis)

Fun, fearsome, and fiercely independent.

Well-crafted...In a nice twist, the identity of the victim comes into question...lively.

An interesting read and a good British police procedural.

Superbly crafted with terse yet colorful prose...La Plante takes a lot of chances with a far-fetched plot and way-out characters, and she hardly ever misses the mark in this absorbing page-turner.

This treasure is a true whodunit that will keep the listener guessing...Hicks communicates the frustration and determination of Detective Anna Travis as she tries to solve the case and prove herself a capable investigator in this perfectly performed novel.

Contains some nice twists, and the character of Travis continues to evolve and grow in complexity.

In the seventh book of the internationally bestselling series by crime queen Lynda La Plante (Prime Suspect), newly promoted DCI Anna Travis takes charge of an investigation for the first time. But is it purely a missing person's case-or a full blown murder inquiry? An ominous pool of blood and no victim lead Anna on a desperate hunt for a man who has disappeared without a trace. As Anna becomes obsessed with seemingly irrelevant details, her superintendent fears that she is losing control. With no body there is no case, and Anna is under increasing pressure to make an arrest.
