| book description |

Itâ€™s 1972 and as newly promoted railway Detective Chief Inspector Jane Benson surveys her office in the gothic gloom of Bristol Temple Meads station, she could be stuck in medieval times. A female pioneer in a manâ€™s world, DCI Benson is plagued by the past â€“ the unsolved murder of her former boss, senselessly gunned down while walking his dog. As her beloved mentor, she owes it to his memory to bring the murderer to justice. Yet she must focus on the present and prove sheâ€™s as good â€“ if not better â€“ than her male colleagues while facing the challenges of policing a railway tainted by a flood of deadly illegal drugs, where one wrong move means A Bullet In The Temple. Stephen Done brings to life another rich vein of characters, as in his celebrated DCI Vignoles railway detective thrillers. Meet Sandy Law, the dark mirror image of the upright Benson; a sexy Pullman stewardess who uses her amateur conjuring skills to fleece salivating businessmen to fund a lush lifestyle. Benson and her Detective Department must grapple with the new and less respectful order, and just as the railways fight for survival in the motorway age, so DCI Benson must ensure her rising star isnâ€™t extinguished by envy and sexism.
