And Lindsay Boxer and her new partner in the San Francisco police department run flat-out to stop a series of kidnappings that has electrified the city: children are being plucked off the streets together with their nannies—but the kidnappers aren't demanding ransom. Amid uncertainty and rising panic, Lindsay juggles the possibility of a new love with an unsolvable investigation, and the knowledge that one member of the club could be on the brink of death.
And just when everything appears momentarily under control, the case takes a terrifying turn, putting an entire city in lethal danger. Lindsay must make a choice she never dreamed she'd face—with no certainty that either outcome has more than a prayer of success.

Lindsay Boxer and her associates at the San Francisco Police Department have their hands full with a string of mysterious child kidnappings. Meanwhile, Lindsay and her tight-knit friends from the Women's Murder Club are devastated as one of their own fights for her life after being shot. Carolyn McCormick voices Lindsay with authority and sensitivity, portraying a competent police professional with a complicated personal life. McCormick nimbly depicts a wide range of characters, from a madman controlled by voices to Lindsay's gruff but caring former partner, who is now her boss. McCormick's skillful narration adds continuity to the jumble of plot lines. N.M.C. (c) AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine -

Fast-paced crime-solving and baffling new developments abound in this installment of the Women's Murder Club. Musical interludes help set the menacing tone between chapters as well as announce cliff-hangers and foreshadow twists in the story. Carolyn McCormick paces the novel well, speeding up in tense moments and slowing for romantic entanglements. As in all novels by Patterson and company, pieces of the story are masterfully, but slowly, developed so listeners can puzzle over the connections until all is revealed. Information left out of the complete work would help listeners fill in gaps; however, McCormick delivers this abridged installment of the Murder Club's case in a satisfying open-and-shut style.
