About this ebook

Detective Lindsay Boxer's investigation into the disappearance of three teachers escalates from missing persons to murder in this shocking Women's Murder Club thriller from the world's #1 bestselling author.

For a trio of colleagues, an innocent night out after class ends in a deadly torture session. They vanish without a clue—until a body turns up. With the safety of San Francisco's entire school system at stake, Lindsay has never been under more pressure.

As the chief of police and the press clamor for an arrest in the "school night" case, Lindsay turns to her best friend, investigative journalist Cindy Thomas. Together, Lindsay and Cindy take a new approach to the case, and unexpected facts about the victims leave them stunned.

While Lindsay is engrossed in her investigation, her husband Joe meets an Eastern European woman who claims to have seen a notorious war criminal—long presumed dead—from her home country. Before Lindsay can verify the woman's statement, Joe's mystery informant joins the ranks of the missing women.

The entire Women's Murder Club must pull together to protect their city and one another from a true monster.

I couldn't wait to read this book it is a good read what you expect from Patterson. I was confused because their daughter wasn't in the story. I have read all the Women's Muder Club series and I was thinking did I miss something They had a child together why isn't it the baby mentioned. It was a harsh story but very real. On sex trafficking and brutal international crimes.

I am an avid reader of all genres and I have read my fair share of books. I have came across many differing writing styles and one thing is for certain: I absolutely LOVE books authored by James Patterson!! He pulls his readers in on the first page and does not let go until the end! At the books end, you are left begging for more!! The talent, creativity, and imagination that goes into each book is simply masterful!!!

I am a major fan of this series and found this book exciting to read. The only downer was that there weren't any meetings of the Women's Murder Club. I really like it when all 4 of the women get together to solve cases. This book shared more of the police angle and was a good read!
