What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
Will she live to see her twenty-first birthday?
When a distraught mother pleads with reporter Cindy Thomas to investigate the disappearance of her daughter, Tara, and her baby granddaughter, Cindy goes straight to SFPD Sergeant Lindsay Boxer.
The prime suspect is Tara's husband, but he tells a conflicting story that paints Tara as a wayward wife, not a missing person.
Is this a tragic case of domestic violence? Or is the truth linked to a more complex network of killings?
As the case grows into something far bigger than any of them could have imagined, the Women's Murder Club will need to work together to unpick the truth from a web of lies.

Critics Review
-
Patterson knows where our deepest fears are buried... there's no stopping his imagination.
NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW
-
No one gets this big without natural storytelling talent - which is what Jim has, in spades.
LEE CHILD, bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series
-
Patterson boils a scene down to a single, telling detail, the element that defines a character or moves a plot along. It's what fires off the movie projector in the reader's mind.
MICHAEL CONNELLY
-
James Patterson is the boss. End of.
IAN RANKIN, bestselling author of the Inspector Rebus series
