Chapter 1I drove up to the library in my black Miata Walking in, I thought, Hell, I deserve a book, I ve had a rough couple of days I searched the shelves looking for books on my list I sighed Oh but what did I see A James Patterson, I couldn t wait to tell the girls I grabbed it and went to check out The clerk told me I owed a fine I exhaled I must have gotten distracted from returning books before when I was on the job of my lifetime that catapulted me into the spotlight Now look at me, I was [...]
Another excellent book from James Patterson I am really enjoying working my way through his many books This one is the second in his Women s Murder Club series and it was fun, easy reading I read most of this on a train trip and its short chapters, good story, and lots of action and intrigue made it ideal reading for this purpose This is a fun series I really enjoy the main characters even when I have to suspend belief over their actions and just enjoy the ride.
2nd Chance by James Patterson is the second in the Women s Murder Club series Having read and thoroughly enjoyed the first one 1st to Die I had high expectations for this.In the usual James Patterson style the story starts off with full on action and emotion and continues through the whole book at a fast pace, tension and twists abound with a final turn in the story I really hadn t thought of Nice short chapters keep you reading just one until you realise you ve nearly finished the book.I know [...]
holy crap, these are HORRIBLE books I can t stop reading them It s like picking a scab Someone help me
It looks like James Patterson has fobbed this series off on a co author Disappointing The plot has almost exactly the same structure as 1st to Die, in the style of We definitely have the killer The case is airtight Except we don t have the killer and the case is full of holes Lt Lindsay Boxer also suffers not one but TWO acute attacks of Lois Lane Syndrome and charges into dangerous situations with the sort of recklessness only a fictional character who obviously must survive to continue the ser [...]
5 for entertaining plot, 1 for stereotyping the womenThe Women s Murder Club is back from Patterson s solo 1st to Die three professional women friends of our leading lady, San Francisco Homicide Lieutenant Lindsay Boxer Except for no sex, this book is a cross between Sex and the City and John Sandford s Prey series about detectives against serial killers But unlike the TV show, neither Patterson nor co author Andrew Gross seem to have a clue about how women think, act, or interact with each othe [...]
First, to be clear, I need to say that this review is being written for the Audio Book format.This is a high paced very enjoyable book with lots of drama, suspense, and plot twists Plus my favorite four women characters that make up this theWomen s Murder Club series There were a couple of things regarding prison procedure, evidence and a forensic improbability that caught my attention, but they are few and far between and they are pretty insignificant It didn t make the book any less enjoyable [...]
I thought this one was really good The killer was very unexpected.
I usually read James Patterson books as a guilty pleasure and quick read, interspersed between good reads I tend to prefer the Alex Cross books, but I recently received the 3rd book in the Women s Murder Club series, and decided I should probably read the first two I m kind of disappointed that I did, because I m beginning to find these books tiresome and recycled, and even sort of irritating I really don t consider myself a book snob, and I can usually find some enjoyment in any book I finish A [...]
More namedropping ensues the pastor reads Dave Egger s A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius and the protagonist is still listening to Sarah McLachlan This is like Sex and the City, only the four women discuss murders instead of men over drinks Oh wait, they do talk about men, too The story arc is almost identical to how the first book went down there goes murder one, two, three and counting, then we finally had a suspect and wow we re chasing him down, we re finally getting leads after days [...]
I didn t like this book quite as much as the first in the series, mostly because the story seemed so similar It was still fun with a quick pace and I like the characters James Patterson can certainly write, I just didn t find this as good as the previous book.

Segunda entrega del Club de las mujeres contra el crimen, en el que las cuatro integrantes del club, con la teniente Lindsay Boxer a la cabeza, intentan resolver un nuevo caso.Igual que sucede en el primero, los cap tulos son muy cortos, el lenguaje es sencillo, y la trama atrapa, as que se lee muy r pido y cuando te das cuenta ya has llegado al final del libro.
The second outing of the Women s Murder Club is a satisfying mystery with a decent number of twists and turns While the Club seems to be bonding every tightly, they didn t have all that much to do in this story, compared to the last one The women are positive, strong female characters, but there are moments, just moments, when I feel that the writer is not a woman Still Patterson and Gross do a fairly good job Possible spoiler alert One big plot hole If Coombs was on parole and had not reported [...]
5 starsAnother very good book Really enjoying this series RIP Chief Mercer Cool that Lindsay Boxer became a Lieutenant Nice to see the Women s Murder Club again Glad we got to see Marty Boxer for a little bit Case was weird and somewhat scary Poor people who died Hope Cindy and Aaron Winslow will stay together for a long time.Can t wait to read 3rd Degree
This is only my 2nd book by Patterson, but I am now a huge fan I usually don t LOL when reading books It takes a lot for me to get to that point, but I did towards the end Not to mention, I just couldn t put it down I think Patterson knows what he is doing by having such short chapters It makes it so much easier to continue reading the book.
15 years ago I read this book for the first time I didn t write reviews then I do now I remember giving this book a high rating Now, so many years later, I still think it s a better story than book 1 The motivation behind the killing spree is rooted in a credible vendetta and it s than just a random psycho killer on the loose When one of the victims is the African American chief of police, Earl Mercer, the homicide team become certain that the killings are related to the SFPD Oh, believe me, [...]
Another Great Read by James Patterson I love The Women s Murder Club Series I highly recommend reading them Great Lead Characters
3.5 stars

After choir practice as the children are leaving, a gunman open fires on them, killing a young black girl and Lindsay investigates It seems like a random act until Cindy, Lindsay s friend and another member of the Women s Murder Club, tells Lindsay that the hanging of an older black woman and the killing of the girl may be related There is the same symbol at both deaths plus both have a connection to police officers Then there are shootings one hits its mark killing the person and other just mi [...]
James Patterson s second installment of his Women s Murder Club series is a fast pased but ultimately unsatisfying read The central mystery is an intriguing one a killer is targeting police officers and those connected to police officers who are connected to a mysterious series of events that took place years ago.It s an idea that has merit and has been done better in other mystery stories most notably anything by Elizabeth George.The mystery has twists and turns, most of them fairly laughable a [...]
2nd Chance reconvenes the Women s Murder Club, four friends a detective, a reporter, an assistant district attorney, and a medical examiner who used their networking skills, feminine intuition, and professional wiles to solve a baffling series of murders in 1st to Die This time, the murders of two African Americans, a little girl and an old woman, bear all the signs of a serial killer for Lindsay Boxer, newly promoted to lieutenant of San Francisco s homicide squad But there s an odd detail she [...]

SPOILER In the first book she continuously confesses her love for her group of friends In this book she continuously confesses her love for her group of friends In the first book she exerts all her energy on the suspect just to find out in the end he is not the killer, in this book she exerts all her energy on the suspect just to find out in the end he is not the killer In both books the actual killers are related to the original suspect and were doing the killings for them in their honor Wonder [...]
I m all for the unconventional way of doing some things, but having a murder club consist of 4 women just doesn t appeal to me However, I m reading this series because it IS so unconventional Getting to know these women is fun Each with their own problems, they also show strength with each other and if it works, then go for it More to follow.
excellent read Alot of suspense just when you thought it was solved it actually isnt love this series
Great fast paced read Action, Action, Action
A great read This series is getting better by the book Lindsay finally sees her father after 20 years and is it because he wanted to make amends or does it have to do with her case There s a killer on the loose and he s killing black people cops or family members of cops Why It s a hatred plus revenge decision and time is running out for Lindsay to determine what s the truth behind the situation This was heart wrenching because Lindsay meets her father and they start to make amends but he destro [...]
I enjoyed this book than the 1st in the series Stumbling upon the series so late in the game, I attributed my dislike to the first to the book s inability to transcend time After speaking with two different readers who promised the series gets better over time, I continued I am still not crazy about the way the members of the club fumble through the cases, nor am I thrilled with the portrayal of female friendship I m going to attribute this to the books being written by men The idea that a grou [...]
