The plots, many sub-plots going on, were suspenseful and unpredictable each with their own twists and turns as the story progressed. I do love the concept of the all female team coming together and each adding their experience and knowledge to solve the murders. The chapters are short too, so it makes you think that you’re reading quickly if you don’t notice how many chapters the book actually has.

The rhythm of the book is easy and the language plain enough to keep the story going with a fast pace. The gruesome murders introduced to the reader were definitely enough to shock, and I didn’t except such scenarios in the first book already, but it’s a good attention grabbing plan to set up the series with. There was a gradual build-up of the plot as the book goes along. Together with Claire Washburn, a coroner, Cindy Thomas, a noisy crime reporter and Jill Bernhardt, an attorney, they come together to form the Women’s Murder Club and get busy with solving the clues and helping Lindsay face her own issues. Things get a little complicated when her own personal tragedy starts getting in the way. She is determined to end it and bring the killer to justice. Inspector Lindsay Boxer of the San Fransisco Police Department is faced with two problems: catching a serial killer two is targeting couples on their wedding nights and dealing with the news of a disease that could kill her.Īlong with her new partner, Chris Raleigh, Lindsay is rushed from crime scene to crime scene as the killer continues the spree.

I don’t usually enjoy series books as the concept behind the books is eventually lost a few books in. I have most of them already, with a few missing here and there that I still need to track down. As of this post’s published date, there are 21 books in the series and probably counting. The Women’s Murder Club series follows four successful women, putting their heads together as they navigate through crime scenes, love scenes and other personal situations. I just need to get through all the books I have of his already, yet that won’t stop me from collecting more in the meantime. That has resulted in owning over 30 of his books and I’m not done just yet.

I really enjoyed the movies and that sparkle the interest in getting a couple of books and seeing what the author was all about.

I first discovered James Patterson when I watched two movies based on his books, Kiss the Girls and Along Came a Spider.
