The 9th judgment

Jessica Williamson

With the exception of the first 50 or so pages, this was my favorite of these by far! It was incredibly had to get started, as it starts off with unfamiliar characters. Then, the first WMC member we get to is Yuki whom I'm not really fond of. 

But once the story starts... it STARTS! The crazy ways that the bed guys are intertwined, finding out which bad guys are actually good guys and the good guys that are bad guys. Let's just say it's some of the best writing I've seen in this series.

I'm not sure how you can consider these a 'mystery' novel when you know the killers full name in the first ten pages but, I'm not a #1 New York Times bestseller so what do I know?

The most personal A young mother and her infant child are ruthlessly gunned down while returning to their car in the garage of a shopping mall. There are no witnesses, and Detective Lindsay Boxer is left with only one shred of evidence: a cryptic message scrawled across the windshield in bloodred lipstick. The most dangerous The same night, the wife of A-list actor Marcus Dowling is woken by a cat burglar who is about to steal millions of dollars' worth of precious jewels. In just seconds there is a nearly empty safe, a lifeless body, and another mystery that throws San Francisco into hysteria. The most exciting Women's Murder Club novel ever Lindsay spends every waking hour working with her partner, Rich--and her desire for him threatens to tear apart both her engagement and the Women's Murder Club. Before Lindsay and her friends can piece together either case, one of the killers forces Lindsay to put her own life on the line--but is it enough to save the city? With unparalleled danger and explosive action, The 9th Judgment is James Patterson at his compelling,

I've loved all the women's murder club Books

The 9th Judgement by James Patterson and Maxine Paetro has a cat burglar nicknamed 'Hello Kitty' who breaks into rich people's homes.  Tonight is no exception, and she's making off with the wife of an A-lister's jewels, but the wife has also been murdered, and so Hello Kitty is suspected.

Elsewhere in San Fransisco, a mother and child are shot down.

Lindsay is assigned to both cases, and so that means the Women's Murder Club is also on both of them!

You can see into who has killed the mother and child, and why as the story goes on, which makes for added tension as you want to tell Lindsay etc.  These books are fast paced, and with short chapters, they are accessible.  This is a series of books that you would read when you don't want to have to work too hard in order to have a thrill ride.

 The 9th Judgement  was published in 2010 and is available from  Amazon ,  Waterstones  and  Bookshop.org .
