Last year I started working through the Women’s Murder Club series by James Patterson and I finished reading the first twelve books.

I’m still planning on continuing the series at some stage, but as it’s not as grabbing as some of the other books on shelf, they aren’t currently a priority.

It was my own mistake not double checking the order of this book when I checked it out of the library because I kind of spoiled the flow of the books for myself. This is book #15.5 in the series, so you see my point here? There were some spoilers and confusing moments to sit through.

Originally published: 2016

Pages: 110
Format: Paperback

Plot from GoodReads:

“I’m not on trial. San Francisco is.”

An accused murderer called Kingfisher is about to go on trial for his life. Or is he? By unleashing unexpected violence on the lawyers, jurors, and police involved in the case, he has paralyzed the city. Detective Lindsay Boxer and the Women’s Murder Club are caught in the eye of the storm.

Now comes a courtroom shocker you will never see coming.

Thoughts:

This was such a quick and easy read, easy to finish in one sitting, especially since most of James Patterson’s books don’t require an emotion connection to enjoy.

Some shocking things have happen in the series but I’m keeping my mouth shut because I don’t want to ruin it for someone else the way I did for myself.

The trial was short and sweet, to the point, uncomplicated by being complicated and not dragged out as some other legal thrillers I’ve read. The ending was unexpected and I’ll have to catch up on the series to see what comes out of it next.

Overview:

Some of the scenes and revelations were completely over the top but I have come to expect that from the author. A quick, one sitting read to enjoy if you like short chapters and a simple writing style.

My Rating:

The book has a rating of 3.98 on GoodReads. I gave it a 4.
