by James Patterson
The Women's Murder Club returns in a shockingly suspenseful thriller. Plunging into a burning town house, Detective Lindsay Boxer discovers three dead bodies...and a mysterious message at the scene. When more corpses turn up, Lindsay asks her friends Claire Washburn of the medical examiner's office, Assistant D.A. Jill Bernhardt, and San Francisco Chronicle reporter Cindy Thomas to help her find a murderer who vows to kill every three days. Even more terrifying, he has targeted one of the four friends. Which one will it be?
I love everything James Patterson writes and as a mom, his books are the perfect read for me b/c his chapters are only about 3 to 4 pages long. You can sneak a few extra chapters in while the kids are busy playing or you are waiting in the carpool to pick them up from school. If you are lilke me, you are so tired at the end of the day that you don't get much reading done before bed. With this you may actually make it through a couple of chapters before falling asleep.
Patterson has always been great at creating believable characters and he does a great job in this book as well. The story line is very capative and keeps you guessing. Of course he throws in a little drama and romance as well for good measure.
All in all a great book to curl up with this weekend, or read little by little during the week.
Have a wonderful weekend.
