Publisher's summary

Two bodies arrived at the morgue - one was still breathing.

A woman checks into a hotel room and entertains a man who is not her husband. A shooter blows away the lover and wounds the millionairess, leaving her for dead. Is it the perfect case for the Women's Murder Club - or just the most twisted?

Just ok!

Kind of comical and read as silly! Love James Patterson but not my favorite! Maybe because it was audible an I usually read!

Dead woman walking???

Loved this Book Shot-even with (for all practical purposes) no Lindsay Boxer. Our friendly coroner-Claire Washburn- comes to work & hears a noise coming from?? one of the cold storage slabs. The story that follows is very intriguing. I highly recommend

Story? Good. Narration? BOO!

Every single character's voice was exactly the same. There was hardly a difference between the men's and women's voices! After listening to January LaVoy in each of the prior Audible books in this series, this was a HUGE letdown. I certainly hope Kate Russell never attempts this venue again.

Voices

I have listened to everyone of the murder club. I was disappointed that it did not have the murder clubs voices. It was weird to try to figure them out. Cara was a black women which this Cara was not. But I still liked it.

Disappointing

And I was disappointed in this particular women's club book. I felt that it lacks the intensity that others I had in the previous books. I believe the purpose of this book was to introduce possibly a new character to the women's murder club.

A not dead dead body!

I enjoyed this shortshot of Dr Claire & the alive dead body! The way James & Maxene write; I could she the expressions on the morgue worker's & Dr Claire's face when there was a moan & movement in the bodybag!
