"The Other Woman" Hank Phillippi Ryan immediately caught and held my attention. Ryan is an investigative reporter in Boston and has won 27 Emmys and 10 Edward R. Murrow awards for her reporting. She's also the bestselling author of four mystery novels and has won the Agatha,Anthony, and Macavity awards. She serves on the national board of directors of Mystery Writers of America as well as Sisters In Crime. You can visit her on the Web at www.hankphillippiryan.com.
Ryan's heroine in "The Other Woman" is a disgraced TV reporter, Jane Ryland, Jane has found a job on a local newspaper and has been assigned the task of finding out why a current candidate's wife is not making public appearances.
In the meantime Detective Jake Brogan who she'd love to be romantically involved with (and he reciprocates the feeling but it would complicate both their jobs) is investigating a series of murders of women found by bridges in Boston. The media thinks there is a serial "bridge" killer on the loose but Brogan doesn't think the murders are connected but how to prove that to his boss and the media?!
As the two work their investigations separately, information begins to throw them together making them both wonder what is going on?! When a woman who was Jane's unnamed source in a story that cost her the TV reporter job, becomes one of the murder victims, Brogan begins to worry for Jane's safety. I stayed up till 2 a.m. to finish the book and I'm ready for her next one! pazt
