She must fight to prove herself . . . before it's too late
DCI Jane Tennison came through the ranks the hard way, opposed and resented at every step by her male colleagues.
When a prostitute is found murdered in her bedsit, the Metropolitan police set to work finding the perpetrator of this brutal attack. DNA samples lead them straight to known-criminal George Marlow. The police think they've found their man, but things are not quite what they seem. . .
Desperate to remove all doubt around her suspect, Tennison struggles to make the charges stick. And then a second body turns up.
With the team against her, DCI Jane Tennison is in a race against time to catch a dangerous criminal ­- and prove she's just as tough as any man.
Based on the award-winning TV series starring Helen Mirren, the complete and unabridged Prime Suspect trilogy is now available for the first time in audio.

      Narrator Rachel Atkins steps into the inimitable shoes of London-based Detective Chief Inspector (DCI) Jane Tennison in this new production in Lynda La Plante's esteemed crime series. When Tennison takes over a case involving a murdered sex worker, her colleagues express their intense displeasure by deliberately undermining her progress. Their principal suspect is characterized as charming and vulnerable, muddling listeners' certainty over his guilt or innocence. As the investigation proceeds, Tennison grapples with institutionalized misogyny and discrimination from her team and boss. Atkins draws out the simmering aggression of the male officers bent on her removal from the department. As Tennison alternates between work and her home life with her boyfriend, Atkins's tonal shifts reveal much about the DCI's personality. An engaging reintroduction for longtime and new fans alike.
