2nd Chance

2nd Chance

In James Patterson's latest blockbuster, the four members of the unconventional Women's Murder Club pursue a killer whose deranged M.O. has struck terror into the heart of the city. When an 11-year-old girl is shot on the steps of a San Francisco church, hard-as-nails Lieutenant Lindsay Boxer calls a meeting of the Women's Murder Club. Together with ambitious assistant D.A. Jill Bernhardt, savvy medical examiner Claire Washburn, and Cindy Thomas, a bright young reporter for the Chronicle, Lindsay tracks the mystifying killer to a local hate group. But this murder appears to be no one-shot accident. Lindsay's instinct tells her it's linked to the hanging death of an elderly widow on the other side of town. But how? The murder of a fellow officer, and then the chief of police, leads Lindsay and her fellow investigators to a new kind of criminal--a serial killer who's slaughtering anyone with a connection to the police force. Now the race is on to catch this unusually twisted murderer before he strikes again. And they'll have to hurry, for Lindsay and her fellow "clubmates" are next on the demented killer's hit list.
