Happy
Birthday to you....
The Women's
Murder Club is back, with changes. Homicide detective Lindsey
is now a mother and wife. Yuki, after her life changing event
in the last novel, is still at the DA Office, for now. Yuki
eventually makes a change, but it's a bit of a surprise and
her choice isn't well received. Cindy, the Club's topnotch
reporter, is celebrating the release of her new book, and
Claire continues as the San Francisco Medical Examiner. Once
again, the ladies are at a birthday celebration when Lindsey
is called to a murder. It's a violent murder, and the killer
had no qualms taking a woman's life out in the open.
The murder
and the birthday celebration aren’t coincidences and
Lindsey mentions it to Joe Molinari, her husband. Joe is a
former federal agent, now deputy director of Homeland Security
based out of the Port of Los Angeles.
He's
been working 18 hour days on a special assignment, which is
why he's taken by surprise when his boss calls to tell him
it's not working out and fires him. Being the professional
he is, Joe moves to a new case; he runs a comparison of the
Club's birthdays and murders that occurred. His self-made
case turns out even more dangerous than his last. The second
thread is a gang robbing various businesses, and they're wearing
Navy Blue SFPD windbreakers. The case moves from robbery to
Drug gangs and violence. The private lives of the Murder Club
shifts throughout. At one point, a bad decision by Lindsey
gives Joe the opportunity to shine and get valuable Intel.
Maybe Joe should get his own series.
There
are certain things to expect with Patterson, an intense storyline
filled with twists and turns, violence and language and, more
recently, cliff hangers. Expect one in this storyline as well.
The audio version of 14th Deadly Sin will have you
sitting up straight. Listeners will appreciate January LaVoy’s
ability to move from a loving moment with Lindsey and her
family to the intensity of the criminals and the senseless
crimes they commit. January LaVoy is best known for her role
as Noelle Ortiz on the TV daytime drama One Life to Live.
