Above Suspicion
Title: Above Suspicion
Description:
Young Anna Travis has been assigned to her first murder case - a series of killings that has shocked even the most hardened of detectives. They started eight years ago - now the body count is up to six. The method of killing is identical, the backgrounds of the girls identical - all drug-users and prostitutes. Then a seventh body is found. The modus operandi is the same - but the victim is a young student with the 'face of an angel'. The profile of the murderer has changed dramatically. Determined to earn the respect of her male colleagues, Anna stumbles on a vital piece of information which links one man to the killings, a much-loved actor on the brink of international stardom. His arrest would create a media frenzy. But if he were found innocent, his wouldn't be the only career over - Anna's hard fought for reputation would be destroyed once and for all ...

Cold Heart
Title: Cold Heart
Description:
Lorraine Page, heroine of Cold Shoulder and Cold Blood, returns with a new face, new wardrobe, new office, new assistant, new dog, and new love--all but the last, L.A. police lieutenant Jake Burton, courtesy of a big bonus earned on her previous case. Lynda La Plante, creator of the PBS series Prime Suspect, puts Lorraine right in the middle of a murderous art swindle scheme. When Harry Nathan, a charismatic producer, director, and collector, is murdered in his Brentwood swimming pool, Lorraine's hired to find out who killed him and then to track the missing art or the millions it's been turned into. Which of Harry's wives had the most to gain from his death? Why is faded ex-movie star Raymond Vallance, Harry's closest friend, still hanging around? Is it something to do with the porno tapes Harry's been blackmailing him over, or was he involved in the swindle, too? It would take a miniseries to unravel all the mcguffins and red herrings La Plante puts in Lorraine's--and the reader's--way. There's the accidental death of her new assistant, Decker--but Lorraine's too busy with her new lover to connect it to the Harry Nathan case. And the attacks on her own life--is there someone from her past seeking vengeance for something she did when she was a cop? Fans of her two previous Lorraine Page suspense novels won't want to miss this one. --Jane Adams
