Summary
Detective Inspector Jane Tennison was beginning to feel she'd made a big mistake.
Having requested a transfer to a station nearer her home, she's now wondering if any serious crimes are ever committed in Bromley. Especially since the first case she's assigned to involves nothing more dramatic than an altercation between neighbours over a disputed property boundary.
Jane's new boss wants her to wrap up the enquiry as quickly as possible, but something in the apparently trivial case doesn't add up.
Why was Martin Boon so adamant that David Caplan shouldn't install a new set of gates when they wouldn't encroach on his own property?
Against her boss's orders, Jane decides to dig deeper, and soon uncovers a trove of dark secrets in sleepy Clarendon Court involving a tragic death and a forbidden love affair. As Tennison hunts for the missing piece of evidence that will identify a vicious killer, she knows that this case will either make her career - or break it.

Good read
Enjoyed. Guessed what had happened and who was likely to have done it but story was still gripping and I enjoyed reading to the end

Another good plot
This is a strong end to the Jane Tennison series and rounds off the story of how she became a DCI. The story builds really well - it’s interesting and easy to follow. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Gripping story despite being somewhat predictable
I love the style of writing from the author- despite being able to guess the ending, I was still enjoying the book- extremely well written interview scene

Despite the I'm going with 4 stars
if you like Lynda La Plante books i.e hardly any talk of thoughts, feelings, or descriptive scenery text, and just 90% dialogue then this is one for you because the story is quite good. It's meant to be set prior to Prime Suspect, which is 1973 but the dialogue is completely 2023 (no sexism, racism etc.) and there's massive blunders talking about take away pizza, going to the supermarket, and I think she mentions drive through McDonald's, none of which were in effect at that time, but still overall I think this one is worth listening to.
