Jennifer's best friend Bobbie is accused of murdering her own mother - Jennifer is convinced Bobbie is innocent and sets out to prove it with the assistance of Lucas Maldonaldo, immediately recognisable as the gallant but ageing hero of a thousand American 'cop' movies. The storyline moves at an accelerating pace and slickly covers the subject areas expected of a thriller - hard drugs, credit card swindles, multiple murders - with the tried and tested red herring thrown in for good measure. It begins to grip the reader -- probably an average or less able third-, fourth- of fifth-year pupil-about half way through. It offers fast-paced entertainment without tears -literary merit is there none.
