Never heard of this author; she was a New York prosecutor of crimes against women.
The sub-plot is based loosely around the Dominic Strauss Khan (?sp) episode with the chambermaid in a New York hotel. This dovetails into another plot involving the prosecutor and her French restaurateur partner. It is fast-paced and quite well written, although a bit heavy in US upper-middle class snobbery.
Would read another one; she has written lots (but essentially pretty lightweight).
