Fleur de Leigh's Life of Crime covers a two-and-a-half year period, and it would be very easy for Fleur herself to dominate the proceedings. But Leslie has created a rich cast of supporting characters, each of whom is given just enough space to establish a distinctive personality yet still not distract our attention from the real star of the show. From the nanny who performs her duties in high heels and gold-flecked lipstick to the loyal gardener to the aging film legend, they all contribute to Fleur's developing awareness of her inner strength, helping her to persevere in the face of her parents' casual disregard. Fleur de Leigh's Life of Crime marks a very promising beginning for a novelist in the vein of Dawn Powell and James Wilcox. --Ron Hogan
