Brenda's Reviews > The Dirty Dozen

The Dirty Dozen is the 5th in the Tennison series by Lynda La Plante and sees Jane Tennison joining the Flying Squad – the first woman detective to be included in what’s known as the dirty dozen; a men’s club like no other. But Jane’s made of tough stuff and is determined to do her job to the best of her ability and prove to these biased, hostile men (especially her boss!) that she deserves to be a member of the Flying Squad. And what’s that about an experiment?

Robberies, murder, coercion, corruption, undercover work – Jane has seen it all. But the sheer ruthlessness of the gang they were following was shocking. What would be the outcome for Jane in this intense, fast paced and gripping thriller? I thoroughly enjoyed The Dirty Dozen and have no hesitation in recommending it highly.
