Dead Politician Society: A Clare Vengel Undercover Novel
Shades of The Mod Squad: Clare Vengel, a rookie Toronto police officer, is sent undercover as a university student to ferret out those responsible for murdering several politicians. But the case gets tougher when Clare finds herself becoming involved with one of the prime suspects. This is an engaging crime novel, if perhaps a bit too reliant on familiar themes, such as the antagonistic sergeant and the plucky newspaper reporter who risks her life to get the big story. It’s intended to be the first in a series, and Clare is certainly a strong enough character to take the lead. All she needs is a little stronger material. --David Pitt--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
