Death Was the Other Woman: A Mystery
New York: Minotaur Books. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 2008. First Edition. Hardcover. 272 pages. As the lawlessness of Prohibition pushes against the desperation of the Depression there are two ways to make a living in Los Angeles: join the criminals or collar them. Kitty Pangborn has chosen the crime-fighters becoming secretary to Dexter J. Theroux one of the hard-drinking tough-talking PIs who pepper the city's stew. But after Dex takes an assignment from Rita Heppelwaite the mistress of Harrison Dempsey one of L.A.'s shadiest--and richest--businessmen Kitty isn't so sure what side of the law she's on. Rita suspects Dempsey has been stepping out and asks Dex to tail him. It's an easy enough task but Dex's morning stroll with Johnnie Walker would make it tough for him to trail his own shadow. Kitty insists she go along for the ride keeping her boss--and hopefully her salary--safe. However she's about to realize that there's something far more unpleasant than a three-timing husband at the end of this trail and that there's more at risk than her paycheck. Richly satisfying and stylishly gritty <I>Death Was the Other Woman </I>gives a brand-new twist to the hard-boiled style revealing that while veteran PIs like Sam Spade and Philip Marlowe spent their time slugging scotch and wooing women it may well have been the Girl Fridays of the world who really cracked the cases. .

An ambitious young reporter with the looks and brains to become a star new hire Ringo Laurenge is poised for a great future with the Washington Examiner. Too bad most of the staffers -- including Chas Wheatley -- wish the arrogant back-stabbing creep would get his just desserts. Not only does this egomaniac steal other reporters's stories he's also determined to destroy a restaurant Chas is researching. Her worries over Ringo have even begun to cut into Chas's love life. It's only a matter of time before the cheesy writer headlines the obituary page. But the insatiably curious Chas -- a journalist with a taste for sleuthing and scoops -- isn't sure she wants to find out which of her colleagues and the rest of the capital finally had enough. . paperback

Having conventionally married ny school friendI ended up a single parent.Having begun work in the days when women's careers were not taken seriouslyI ended up advising ministers and Prime Ministers.I have experienced all this from an unusual positioninside the secret state. 'In the 1980s I was seen by some as Mrs Thatcher's stoogethe leader of an arm of the secret state which was helping her to beat the miner's strike and destroy the NUM.I was portrayed as the investigator of CND and even as the one who had ordered the murder of an old lady peace campaigner Hilda Murrell.In 1992when I first emerged into the public gaze as Director-General of MI5I became a female James Bond'Housewife Superspy''Mother of Two Gets Tough with Terrorists'.And finallywith the writing of this bookI have becometo some 'Reckless Rimington' careless of our national security.I don't recognize myself in any of those roles. 'The unexpected course of my life has involved me closely with some of the significant issues of the late 20th centuryincluding the rise of terrorismthe end of the Cold War and some of the big social questionssuch as women's place in society how can work and family be combinedcivil liberties how far should the state intrude on the citizen's privacy to ensure their safetyand open government how much should the public know about the secret state and how should it be controlled. These are some of the issues that concerned me throughout my career in MI5and which I discuss in this book.'
