Summary

Detective Anna Travis is called out to a motorway service station on the M1 where the body of a young girl has been found in a nearby ditch. With no apparent family, friends or connections, this victim is the latest in a string of women who have gone missing in the vicinity, with no one stepping forward to claim them.

As the investigation appears to stall, Anna receives an unexpected letter from a man she helped put away. He asks her to visit him in prison immediately, claiming to know who the killer is. With no other leads, Anna has no choice but to confront her past. But could this new line of enquiry leave her with more questions than answers?

I have immense respect for Lynda La Plante and am a huge fan of her Jane Tennison series.
I am enjoying the Anna Travis series, but there are so many parallels between the two characters that sometimes, when I'm reading about Anna Travis, it feels as though I'm reading about Jane Tennison. Anna is an unattached woman with no friends, short-lived love affairs and a single-minded dedication to her career - remind you of anyone? It might have been a good idea to have made Anna completely different, but that's just an observation on my part and I am still enjoying the series.
I'm surprised that someone of Lynda's brilliance makes reference to the Citizens' Prosecution Service and the Criminal Prosecution Service - neither of these organisations exist. The correct name is Crown Prosecution Service.
Another factual inaccuracy - SPOILER ALERT - Smiley confesses to the murders during the police interview, in the presence of his solicitor, and the admission is recorded. Why, then, is there reference to his trial? When a suspect makes a formal confession, there's no need for a trial, only a sentencing hearing. Trials are for people who continue to protest their innocence.
Here's another observation: each Anna Travis story contains the following:
1. Her phone rings just as she's about to go to bed
2. She drinks too much, forgets to set the alarm and wakes up with a headache
(Just saying ...!)
Having said all that, this is a superb series and the quality of the writing is awesome.
Also, I think this narrator is one of the best I've ever heard. Her range is voices - male and female - is remarkable.
