They work in menial jobs and attract no notice until the elder sister, Samira, is found in an abandoned building, sadistically tortured and murdered. The coroner finds some of the torture scars were only days old but many were over a decade old. D. Super Tennison is so passionate about resolving this case, she takes it out of the hands of the DCI she put in charge.

But, are Jane Tennison's cases ever simple? Written by LA-Lawyer See less
