**In James Patterson's shockingly suspenseful #1 _New York Times_ bestseller, one member of the Women's Murder Club is hiding a secret so dangerous that it could destroy them all.**

Detective Lindsay Boxer is jogging along a beautiful San Francisco street when a fiery explosion rips through the neighborhood. When Lindsay searches for survivors, she finds three people dead. A lost infant and a mysterious message at the scene leaves Lindsay and the San Francisco Police Department completely baffled.

Then a prominent businessman is found murdered under bizarre circumstances, with another mysterious message left behind by the killer. Lindsay asks her friends Claire Washburn of the medical examiner's office, Assistant D.A.

Even more terrifying, the killer has targeted a member of the Women's Murder Club.
