Kate Brannigan is a great invention and the convoluted investigations in which she finds herself are both highly imaginative on the one hand but also
highly credible. This sound basing of what happens in the realities of what
presumably passes for everyday life in urban England makes the stories move
along at a brisk pace and one is never left straining to accept what happens.
In present terms, a worthy successor to those who tread the mean streets - and this one in high heels!
