Summary
Nominated in Best Female Narrator at the Audie Awards 2020.
She must fight to prove herself...before it's too late.
DCI Jane Tennison came through the ranks the hard way, opposed and resented at every step by her male colleagues.
When a prostitute is found murdered in her bedsit, the Metropolitan police set to work finding the perpetrator of this brutal attack. DNA samples lead them straight to known criminal George Marlow. The police think they've found their man, but things are not quite what they seem....
Desperate to remove all doubt around her suspect, Tennison struggles to make the charges stick. And then a second body turns up.
With the team against her, DCI Jane Tennison is in a race against time to catch a dangerous criminal - and prove she's just as tough as any man.
Baseded on the award-winning TV series starring Helen Mirren, the complete and unabridged Prime Suspect trilogy is now available for the first time in audio.

Excellent!
As good if not even better than the original TV show. I was able to picture the actors playing the parts & the narrator brought all of the characters to life.

not bad at all !
This was my first foray into Lynda La Plante's writing and I was very impressed ... the plot kept moving along at a breathtaking pace and her slant on male v female in the top job was refreshingly realistic... sadly !!
I much enjoyed the book, Racel Atkins narration was superb, and I look forward to listening to the next in the series. Thank you all round !

Fabulous
This is well-written, well-read and a joy to listen to. I saw the TV programme first and could not help imaging the cast since so much of the dialogue is identical. But this book is great!

Enjoyable but outdated
I listened to the 3 books in the ‘Widows’ series and the follow up book ’Buried’. I enjoyed them so thought I’d give this a listen.
The story was good but it feels so outdated listening to it in this day and age…still that’s the way it was back then. Being of a certain age myself I remember it well. Younger listeners may not get many of the references used or comprehend just how hard it was for women to be taken seriously it what was perceived to be ‘a man’s world’ which may impact on the credibility and therefore enjoyment of the book.
