La Plante excels at creating hard-edged female detectives (Prime Suspect's Jane Tennison is her small-screen triumph), and Cold Blood's Lorraine Page is no exception. In this, her third Page novel, the L.A.-based private investigator is savoring a $1 million bonus from her last case as she plunges eagerly into a murder investigation involving sadistic home porn movies and a $20 million art-forging conspiracy.
