Publisher's summary

In this #1 New York Times bestseller, an attention-seeking copycat from the Women’s Murder Club’s past is recreating murders by a famous killer—with devastating new twists.

Detective Lindsay Boxer put serial killer Evan Burke in jail.

Reporter Cindy Thomas wrote a book that put him on the bestseller list.

An obsessed maniac has turned Burke’s true-crime story into a playbook. And is embellishing it with gruesome touches all his own.

Now Lindsay’s tracking an elusive suspect, and the entire Murder Club is facing destruction.

Great Book

This is a great book, I wasn’t expecting anything less from the authors. A really enjoyable read/listen. The storyline was worth its weight in gold, in my opinion.

I liked this story!

I believe I liked this story more than his others. I’m my eyes, as I listened, I could visualize the action & the characters. The read was pleasant, with no forced voices for most…altho I liked the little girl’s squeaky voice. The continuity kept me engaged.
No spoiler alert here!

I love The Murder Club Mysteries.

Although this was not my favorite in the series I enjoyed listening to it. I think its time to introduce some new characters. The murder club has room for another interesting female professional. A odontologist or forensic specialist could
offer a great deal to the series.

January Lavoy

I absolutely love this series, but January brings it to life. She puts me in the story to where I fill like I’m Lindsey Baxter. I give this 100 🌟
