Publisher's summary

Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller!

“Tough-but-tender cop Lindsay Boxer” (People) leads the Women’s Murder Club in the high-profile murder investigation of a billionaire San Francisco couple. As enemies lurk in the shadows, will Cindy, Claire, Yuki, and Lindsay still be standing when the clock strikes midnight?

SFPD Sergeant Lindsay Boxer, Medical Examiner Claire Washburn, Assistant District Attorney Yuki Castellano, and crime writer Cindy Thomas gather at one of San Francisco’s finest restaurants to celebrate exciting news: Cindy is getting married.

Before they can raise their glasses, there’s a disturbance in the restaurant. A woman has been assaulted.

Claire examines the victim. Lindsay makes an arrest. Yuki takes the case. Cindy covers it.

The legal strategy is complicated by gaps in the plaintiff’s memory—and the shocking reason behind her ever-changing testimony.

As Yuki leads the prosecution, Lindsay chases down a high-society killer whose target practice may leave the Women’s Murder Club short a bridesmaid … or two.

This series is getting old.

I’ve always love the women’s murder club books but they are losing their excitement and suspense. Same old same old. The last few have been meh.

great story line

Great addition to the Women's Murder Club. love getting to see Joe back at work and the cases having current real life senerios. The addition on a new detective also helps the story line.

Patterson still has it

Love this installment of the Women's Murder Club. As always it's fast paced, keep you guessing, and draws you in. The characters feel like family as we've watched them grow and change over the years.

As with all Women’s Murder Club books, this one went way too fast. The story was excellent.

Too mish mashed

I love the murder club books… every one of them, but this was their worst. I’ll wait for the next one and hope it’s better.

The 24th Hour

A solid Women’s Murder Club Novel. This series seems to have plateaued over the last several in the series. It’s good, don’t get me wrong, but it’s not great/amazing/captivating. January LaVoy is one of my FAVORITE narrators and doesn’t disappoint!

Love it!!

Just like all women’s murder club, this one does not disappoint. I’m a big fan and if haven’t read the series, go back and start with the first one and spend an entire weekend of doing nothing but reading!
