When more corpses turn up, Lindsay asks her friends Claire Washburn of the medical examiner's office, Assistant D.A.

Which one will it be?

I have been gripped since I began reading Pattersons Womans Murder Club series. Again I managed to devour this one in around 24 hours and it followed on really nicely from books 1 & 2.
It was sad to say goodbye to one of the main characters from the series, also as it happened mid-novel it probably didn't get as much emotional time invested in it as could have been but with the books linking together so well maybe this is something they'll come back to in later books.
This book is a little different to books 1 & 2 whereby its conclusion is less defined and much less tense. This didnt leave me quite so fulfilled but i'm still desperate for book 4.
I am shocked and sad. I did not expect this, at lease not so early in the series. I am really enjoying this series and I can't wait to start the next book. But I am still sad knowing that we lost one of my favorite characters.
In this story Lt. Lindsay Boxer is out jogging with her dog when a nearby house suddenly explodes. After calling for help she goes into the burning building to see if there are any survivors. She finds a young boy and is able to get him out. She later finds out that the family was targeted because of the husband's business dealings. The group responsible left a note and it is clear that they plan to continue the killing. As Lindsay works to find the killer her friend Jill is having marital problems and the other friends try to help. When Jill doesn't show up to work one day with no explanation Her friends think maybe she decided to take off on a trip without telling anyone like she has done before OR maybe her husband did something to her. They are wrong though which Lindsay soon finds out.
This was a good suspenseful mystery as Lindsay and her friends try to figure out who the murderer is before the next victim dies. I liked the characters and the plot and I look forward to reading the next book in the series, 4th of July.
