Power Games — Judith Cutler

British Detective Kate Power grapples with arson, murder, and some very distressing career trouble in this mystery.
 
Moving from London to Birmingham to start over on a new police force was no easy task, but Det. Sergeant Kate Power is finally starting to feel like she's got everything in hand. Little does she know that things are about to get dangerously complicated.
 
First, she's assigned a series of arson attacks that led to the death of a vagrant. Then her quiet tennis lesson is interrupted by the discovery of a woman's body in the sports center's shower. To top it all off, Kate abruptly finds herself transferred to a new elite team -- completely against the will of the detective inspector in charge.
 
Things aren't looking good, and it's not long before Kate gets suspended. Now, the young detective has to fight for her job, all while trying to solve a handful of crimes that just might be connected . . .
