Publisher's Summary

It is every mother's nightmare: her child is missing, found murdered, and her lover is the prime suspect. It is every police officer's dread: a child murder, a circumstantial case. It is every solicitor's dream. Twelve men and women will decide the verdict, but only you can decide if justice is done for the victim.

©1997 Lynda La Plante; (P)2000 BBC Audiobooks

What the Critics Say

"La Plante writes superbly theatrical dialogue for this investigation of a child's violation and murder. Perhaps that's why narrator Rodska can't resist showing off his considerable skills with dialects and impersonation." (AudioFile)

    "Trial and Retribution"

    Have thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. Well written by the author and very well read by the narrator. I have already put the rest of her titles in my Wish List.

    "Classic La Plante"
    Where does Trial and Retribution rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

    This was one of the best. Really enjoyable.


    What other book might you compare Trial and Retribution to and why?

    Different to other books by same author. Still a murder mystery but with a new angle.


    Which character – as performed by Christian Rodska – was your favorite?

    Detective North. Even though she is female and the narrator is male you could still get into the character.


    Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

    I felt for all the characters even the murderer when he was eventually revealed. Without giving the story away nearly all the characters had different reactions to the crime and therefore bought a level of humanity to the story.


    Any additional comments?

    Linda La Plante brings real life into her books. All her different series are unique while still having the general crime theme. This the first in the series grabs you and leaves you wanting more.

    "Trial and Retribution"

    I could not understand the narrator. The accent was too strong.
