"More than just an excellent mystery, Above Suspicion provides a dramatic look at victims and victimization.

The story and characters seamlessly flow into a reader's awareness as a complete and compelling reality.

'Lynda La Plante practically invented the thriller. She is without a doubt one of the best writers working today. ABOVE SUSPICION blew me away - it grabs you and doesn't let go until the last page'
KARIN SLAUGHTER
'La Plante is building up an interesting body of writing that is underrated... Anna Travis is confronted by the shadow of a frightening serial killer and through obstinate sleuthing, identifies a major public figure as the possible culprit. Anna proves a resourceful and believable heroine and heralds the launch of a major new character'
THE GUARDIAN
'. . . balancing the minutiae of police work and the dreadful politics of the job, Anna proves to be a resourceful and believable heroine in an all-too-recognisable contemporary Britain and heralds the launch of a major new character'
CRIME TIME
'The prime suspect here is an adored actor, poised to hit the big time. Could he really be behind a string of grisly murders? It's up to Anna Travis, La Plante's gutsy new heroine, to find out'
MAIL ON SUNDAY
'Like Jane Tennison, Anna Travis has to work a world which is still rampantly chauvinistic... it is a novel to read about the complexity of relationships, as well as for its compelling plot'
DAILY EXPRESS
'A damn good read'
