Publisher's summary

A terrible fire in a wealthy suburban home leaves a married couple dead and Detective Lindsay Boxer and her partner Rich Conklin searching for clues. And after California's golden boy, Michael Campion, has been missing for a month, there finally seems to be a lead in his case - a very devastating lead.

As fire after fire consume couples in wealthy, comfortable homes, Lindsay and the Murder Club must race to find the arsonists responsible and get to the bottom of Michael Campion's disappearance. But suddenly the fires are raging too close to home.

Frightened for her life and torn between two men, Lindsay must find a way to solve the most daunting dilemmas she's ever faced - at work and at home.

Crack another case with the Women's Murder Club.

Critic reviews

"In true Patterson style, the reader is privy to Lindsay's thoughts as well as the killers', ratcheting up the suspense an extra notch. Fans won't be disappointed with the twist at the end that not even Lindsay sees coming." ( Publishers Weekly)

It's a "Gotcha"

I've been a Patterson fan for years. The Murder Club is a favorite. Seventh Heaven has all the good moves and mysteries. Narration special. It moves and dodges without a drag. Whenever it was shut down I couldn't wait to get back to it. One of his best.

Better to read it than to hear it.

I'm a big fan of James Patterson the Women's Murder Club. I read the 6 previous books and watched the tv series. This is my first "listen" of the audio version and I'm sorry to say the narrator is disappointing.

I enjoyed Carolyn McCormick on the Law and Order series, but as a narrator, she is sadly lacking. Often I could not tell when the dialog changed from one character to another. Often, she overlooked an ephasis that needed an inflection of the voice and often she used inflection when it wasn't called for. It made the book boring and confusing, having to plod along in the sameness and concentrate on who might be speaking.

Top notch author, great book series, needs a narrator of the same quality.

It just keeps getting better

The Womens Murder Club books continue to bring me great enjoyment. The plots are imaginative and storylines true from book to book. In the middle of No 8 and can't wait for 9 and 10. Hope they continue.

Another great read

I love the Women's Murder Club series and this book was no exception. It kept my mind so occupied on my daily walks at noon that I cheated and wound up listening to it in the car on my way home, as well.

Love The Series, But Getting Repetitive

Big fan of the Murder Club series, but found this book to be a little thin. Seems like a lot of the story was just to fill the page. But, I still think it was well worth the time to listen. Also, I think part of the problem may have been the narrator, she was just not up to the standard of his previous novels in the series.
