THE TALISMAN
What will the future hold for a family cursed by its past?
As Gypsy tradition dictates, Freedom Stubbs should have been buried with the gold necklace that he earned as a Heavyweight Boxing Champion. Instead, his wife Evelyne kept it, hoping to sell it for a hefty profit if ever the family were to fall on hard times. As a result, the family is afflicted by a terrible curse.
Freedom’s sons, Edward and Alex, suffer the consequences of their family’s past mistake, as a series of horrifying events fuels the brothers’ lust for justice. Struggling to survive, will they be able to keep their loved ones safe?
From the miseries of war years to the glamorous present, in London, America and South Africa, Lynda La Plante continues the bestselling saga that began with

PRIME SUSPECT 2:
A FACE IN THE CROWD
The coroner’s report identifies the body as young, black, female and anonymous. Yet one thing is clear to Detective Chief Inspector Jane Tennison about the latest victim discovered in one of London’s poorest districts – that news of her murder will tear apart a city already cracking with racial tensions, hurling Scotland Yard and Tennison herself into a maelstrom of shocking accusations and sudden violence.
As London’s ruthless killer remains at large, Tennison is struggling to overcome her station house’s brutal chauvinism and insidious politicking. And as the department’s deeply rooted racism overshadows every facet of her new investigation, the trail of her prime suspect grows colder. Worse, when details of the beleaguered detective’s stormy personal life explode across the headlines of London’s sleaziest tabloids, Tennison’s already frenzied determination to bring the killer to justice will be catapulted into obsession – one that could send her spiralling over the edge.
