4th
Of July
Women's
Murder Club
By
James Patterson and Maxine Paetro
Read
by Carolyn McCormick
"Nobody
cares."
Lindsay
Boxer is haunted by two cases, both involving young people. The
cases are irritating to a point because neither is close to being
solved. Boxer's former partner interrupts a get-together at Suzy's
with the Women's Murder Club and a pitcher of margaritas. He has
a lead on a Mercedes in the Tenderloin district where the most recent
murder took place. Boxer goes with him. The outcome of the stakeout
has deadly results. Those still alive when the smoke clears will
spend months physically and emotionally scared. Boxer gets herself
in some serious legal trouble that puts her in front of a judge
and jury. She takes a break and heads to her sister's home. Her
only company at first is a potbelly pig that can read minds. She
ends up getting involved in some local murders that don't make sense,
but yet seem familiar. Life with Lindsay Boxer is never dull.
And
a suspense novel by Patterson is never boring. Boxer is a perfect
lead character - beautiful, strong, smart, and quick with a gun.
She loves her job and enjoys her social life with gal pals Claire
and Cindy. Even the man in her life is perfect. At some points her
character seems over done, but not to the point it distracts from
the rollercoaster ride of suspense Patterson and Paetro have put
together. The authors give readers a little of everything in this
one - courtroom drama, spine-chilling stalkers, startling moments,
and blow-by-blow drama. What could be worse than knowing the stalker?
Hearing his very thoughts
. It's down right creepy
.
The
audio book version is read by actress Carolyn McCormick, who is
widely known for her role as Dr. Olivit on TV's Law and Order.
The content gets graphic at some points, so remember those headphones!
