Chief Superintendent Fran Harman was on the verge of retirement when a colleague wound up in intensive care. It wasn't in her nature to be other than helpful so she agreed to stay on and take over the investigations into a series of happy-slappings and minor assaults. It's the stuff of which the media is fond, but one reporter does seem to have a very personal interest in the case.
Feisty women police officers are definitely not ten a penny. Lorraine Hunt in Sheila Quigley's [[Every Breath You Take]] has all the right attributes but the book is not as well written as ''Cold Pursuit''. You might also appreciate Harriet Martens in H R F Keating's [[Rules, Regs and Rotten Eggs]].
