10th Anniversary by James Patterson

I just finished 10th Anniversary by James Patterson.  This book is the 10th in a series about the San Francisco Women's Murder Club.  This club is made up of a police detective, medical examiner, lawyer and reporter.   Finally Lindsay (police detective) is marrying the love of her life - Joe.  After taking some time off she comes back to work and her first case involves Avis Richardson, a 15 year old girl who is found on the side of the road by someone driving by wearing only a rain poncho and is severely bleeding, seems she recently gave birth, but can't seem to remember what happened and how she got there or where her baby is.  Lindsay has to figure out what happened and if the baby is still alive.

Yuki (lawyer) has to win a big case if she is ever going to get that promotion.  She is sure to win this one, Dr. Martin is charged with shooting and killing her husband.  All the evidence points to Dr. Martin, but then Lindsay gets involved in the case and many questions come up. Will Yuki win this case or is she charging an innocent woman?

Cindy (the reporter) is in love with Rich Conklin, Lindsay's partner.  Working as a crime reporter for the San Francisco Chronicle, she has to get a big break, it is a competitive career.  She gets the inside scoop on reports of women being found passed out near their homes with no recollection of how they got there or what happened to them in the hours before.  She tracks down a lead that could put her in a very dangerous position.

This book is full of twists and will keep you reading.  I could not put it down! If you are looking for a mystery novel full of suspense, I highly recommend 10th Anniversary by James Patterson.

  1. I've procrastinated reading 10th Anniversary because the last few in the WMC series disappointed me. Glad to see it was hard for you to put down.
