A new terror is sweeping the streets of San Francisco. And the killers look a lot like cops... As Detective Lindsay Boxer investigates whether the perpetrators are brilliant impostors or police officers gone rogue, she receives a chilling warning to back off. On the other side of the city, an innocent woman is murdered in broad daylight in front of dozens of witnesses. But there are no clues and no apparent motive. With killers in disguise, a maniac murderer on the loose, and danger getting ever closer to Lindsay's door, could this be one case too many for the Women's Murder Club?

This was probably the first time I liked a court scene in this entire series. It wasn't a huge scene, but I enjoyed it. 

It was pretty easy early on to figure out who the bad guys were and how all of the cases were tied together. There were way too many players in this one to keep track of what was going on and who everyone was. It was just way too brain hurty. 

There was very little of the girls from the Women's Murder Club in this one. I missed them. I mean it's the name of the damn series, and you rarely see them. Is it Yuki? Is she the reason the WMC is suffering? I mean, when Jill was there they were together a lot. But here, not so much. 

The cases in this one were all pretty well wrapped up, but there was one loose end still going.

In the audiobook, the music is so damn weird. Particularly during the sex scene in this one. I just, it needs to stop.

14th Deadly Sin by James Patterson and Maxine Paetro (Women's Murder Club 14) and Lindsay, Claire, Cindy and Yuki are all back with a bang!  It's Claire's birthday!  Yuki is thinking about changing her job, Cindy has written a book about the serial killers she helped to bring down, and Lindsay is still catching bad guys!

I found it interesting to see Yuki's thoughts on her job, and seeing Cindy becoming an author.  I didn't think either of these were explored very much, but then these books are light reading.

It was fast paced and had surprises, and so was exactly what I was expecting!  I think there's always room for a book series that you know what you're getting.
