When a horrifying attack leaves one of the four members of the Women's Murder Club struggling for her life, the others fight to keep a madman behind bars before anyone else is hurt.
And Lindsay Boxer and her new partner in the San Francisco police department run flat-out to stop a series of kidnappings that has electrified the city: children are being plucked off the streets together with their nannies--but the kidnappers aren't demanding ransom. Amid uncertainty and rising panic, Lindsay juggles the possibility of a new love with an unsolvable investigation, and the knowledge that one member of the club could be on the brink of death.
And just when everything appears momentarily under control, the case takes a terrifying turn, putting an entire city in lethal danger. Lindsay must make a choice she never dreamed she'd face--with no certainty that either outcome has more than a prayer of success. |

 Lotsa Murder Going Here |
| Review Date: August 30, 2008 |

In case you don't know, the Woman's Murder Club is made up of San Francisco Detective Lindsay Boxer, Assistant D.A. Yuki Castellano, Medical Examiner Claire Washburn and Reporter Cindy Thomas. In this one we have three story lines going at once, all interesting.
The book opens with wacko Fred Brinkley firing six shots at passengers on a ferry. Four people die and Murder Club Member Claire Washburn is wounded. Brinkley is quickly arrested, but is he sane, Yuki is going to try awfully darned hard to prove he is.
Meanwhile person or persons unknown are kidnapping rich kids and their nannies. The nannies turn up without a pulse, but the children are kept by the nefarious bad guys, who warn the families that their darlings will remain alive and unharmed as long as they don't go to the cops.
And meanwhile again, there are problems a brewing in Cindy's new apartment building. Some one dispatches a dog there, sending him off to doggie heaven. Of course, a dead dog isn't enough to satisfy the killer, so he moves on up to killing the tenants. Think Cindy will find a story here?
Okay, so there you have it, three mysteries to wrap your mind around. Is it too much for one book? Not on your life. Mr. Patterson and Ms. Paetro pulled me right on in, held my interest, kept my finger turning those pages. This is a good book. I'm a big fan of Patterson's earlier work and it seems Maxine Paetro has put him right back on track. You won't go wrong with this one. |

| You must read this book, it is one of Patterson's finest. I personally prefer the books he writes alone to the ones he cowrites, they aren't near as fine. This one is though and you won't be able to put it down. |

| As always James Patterson keeps us involved and entertained to the very end. Easy to read. Cannot put the book down. I finished reading it in one full day. Keep these books coming. |

as usual James Patterson has given us a spell binding adventure in law and order with the Womens Club. I am looking forward to the TV series.
I miss Alex Cross and would love to read more of his adventures.
