Publisher's summary

When a preacher with a message of hope for the homeless is found brutally executed, reporter Cindy Thomas knows the story could be huge. Probing deeper into the victim's history, she discovers he may not have been as saintly as everyone thought...

Rich, beautiful, and powerful, Isa and Ethan Bailey were living in the spotlight as San Francisco's perfect couple--until they are found dead in their luxurious home. As the hunt for two criminals tests the skills of the entire Women's Murder Club, sparks begin to fly between Detective Lindsay Boxer and her partner, Rich Conklin, making it difficult to stay focused on the case. The electrifying new chapter in the Women's Murder Club series, The Eighth Confession serves up the mile-a-minute twists that only James Patterson can deliver.

Murder club series is always a good read but....

I always enjoy Patterson's portrayal of women without all the nonsense of getting their hair and nails done. However, the story like for this book is a bit frenetic, missing a true combination of events.

Alright

It was a good read but easy to figure out; not much suspense. I am still glad I read it though.

Awesome plot

I love this whole series. It’s captivating and holds your attention. This one in particular is a what feels like a short read.

Reader Disappointing

I had a lot of trouble getting used to the reader - who reads mechanically, putting the same amount of emphasis on each word - mechanical.
A good reader enhances my enjoyment of a book - in this case I had to make an effort to persevere in order to get through a pleasant story.

Good book if you enjoyed all the other 7 in series

Which character – as performed by Carolyn McCormick – was your favorite?

Lindsey

Any additional comments?

It is a good book, but not great. The story line was good, but at times the narrator read really fast, like in 2x speed and she is just not my favorite.
