A fresh, streetwise, frequently funny, frequently nasty, London-based crime series featuring sexy, no-nonsense female DI Jessie Driver Jessie Driver is a fast-track motorbike-riding female cop with a colourful love-life, an attitude and more than a few resentful male colleagues. When one of them sends her to check out a headless skeleton washed up on the banks of the Thames, Jessie is furious.

Soon Jessie is on the trail of a vicious killer who seems to be targeting B-list celebrities -- the owner of the implants is the first, but not the only, wannabe to meet a sticky end. Under a media spotlight, Jessie's given the chance to prove once and for all that she has what it takes to handle a high-profile investigation. But when she becomes dangerously involved with a key suspect, her detached professionalism seems to fly out the window, and soon her own life could be in danger.

Of course I just realized that I have already read the sequel to this---but I may have to reread it! I do love how Carrie Adams writes and now that I know there really is more to the Tessa King story....I need to refresh my memories---I know I liked it, too!

Not as amusing as The Godmother, but ok chick lit.
