Resumen del Editor

The Women's Murder Club faces an unspeakable horror in an irresistible hospital and courtroom thriller by number one best-selling author James Patterson.

Somebody dies.

A young mother is recuperating in a San Francisco hospital when she is suddenly gasping for breath. The call button fails to bring help in time. The hospital's doctors, some of the best in the nation, are completely mystified by her death. How did this happen?

Apocalypse nears.

This is not the first such case at the hospital. Just as patients are about to be released with a clean bill of health, their conditions take a devastating turn for the worse. Accompanied by the newest member of the Women's Murder Club, Yuki Castellano, Lieutenant Lindsay Boxer probes deeper into the incidents. Could these cases just be appalling coincidences? Or is a maniac playing God with people's lives? When someone close to the Women's Murder Club begins to exhibit the same frightening symptoms, Lindsay fears no one is safe.

The fifth horseman rides.

It is a wild race against time as Lindsay's investigation reveals a hospital administration determined to shield its reputation at all costs. And while the hospital wages an explosive court battle that grips the entire nation, Lindsay and the Women's Murder Club hunt for a merciless killer among its esteemed medical staff.

The newest addition to the top-selling new mystery series takes the Women's Murder Club to the most terrifying heights of suspense they have yet to encounter. The 5th Horseman proves once again that James Patterson is "the page-turningest author in the game right now" (San Francisco Chronicle).

Pretty good - not his best but worth reading.

If you could sum up The 5th Horseman in three words, what would they be?

If I could sum up The 5th Horseman in three words, I would say unpredictable -filled with twists and turns in typical James Patterson style, unforgettable -it keeps your interest, and entertaining -an easy read that flows nicely.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The 5th Horseman?

The very end.one of the most memorable moments was at the very end so you will want to read it all the way through.

Have you listened to any of Carolyn McCormack’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have found Carolyn McCormack's performance to always be believable and she does a good job here.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes

love this series

still not a fan of the music but the narration is good, good story hard to turn off

Meh

Ok, the latest installment of the Women's Murder Club books gets a 3.5 out of 5 because, like all the Women's Murder Club books, it's too easy to see the ending wayyyyyy off. But I like the character's struggle with how to reconcile her professional life and her love life and the other character's decision that litigation is soul-less after her mother's passing (two things to which I personally relate).

The narration is great, as usual. The story is acceptable, like most of this series. I like James Paterson, and I find his books to be an escape while I'm doing that annoying commute.

Overall, I think this fit into the series fine. This series is what got me excited about James Paterson and although Lindsey Boxer is no Alex Cross, she does keep me at least marginally interested in her personal life. Which is more than I can say for most modern detective novels.

Not his best

The 5th book in the womens murder club is not as good as the previous 4. There was very little in this book about the 'women's club' and it focused heavily on Lindsey and Yuki, giving me the feeling that the author is straying from the friendships these women share and the core of what sparked this whole series. A few quick and short chapters and no further developement of the girls. Not as solid as the others and I had more questions than answers at the book's end. I was hoping for more than the book delivered.

Fun Story

This a good continuation of the Murder Club mysteries. There are parts that don't relate with the main story, but it's still a good read. I liked the 4th book in the series better, but I really like Lindsey Boxer.

a forever fan!

another great one. love James Patterson and the murder club series, cant wait to read the next!!

The Murder Club

Overall good series, however The 4th of July was my favorite.
Lindsay and her friends are a fun listen... even through all their trials and tribulations.
I never was able to finish...... no...... "start" book 2.... the narrator was just terrible. She put me to sleep (with boredom, of course.)
Books 1, 3, 4 and 5 were fun and kept me listening.
If you buy the series, good luck with Book 2!

Nice addition to the series

If you could sum up The 5th Horseman in three words, what would they be?

Good storyline and characters

What does Carolyn McCormick bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Enjoyed the narrator - good reader

Any additional comments?

I like the 'woman s club ' characters. If people are overly harsh I would suggest they move on to another series.
