When Catherine Saylor decided to become a private investigator, she made a conscious decision to avoid the slugs and bottom feeders of society, those for whom violence was frequently a way of life. Instead, she chose the high road of corporate security, of white collar crime. Now however, she's forced to confront a brutal killer who has framed her lover, Peter Harman. There is more to this story of the search for justice than first meets the readers' eye. In what is to become almost a hallmark of Linda Grant's writing, her protagonist must follow several threads in order to finally successfully solve this case. Hampering her efforts to clear Harman, P.I. Saylor has to cope with several overprotective associates, not the least intrusive of whom is her former husband, Dan Walker. If, at times, the author's attempts to establish her protagonist as a capable, stand-up kind of person, get in the way of the pace, the story is interesting enough that we forgive these minor excesses. RANDOM ACCESS MURDER is a good story, well told. Intrigue Press is to be complimented for bringing this one back to the reading public.
