1st to Die (Women's Murder Club)

Publisher's Summary Four women - four friends - share a determination to stop a killer who has been stalking newlyweds in San Francisco. Each one holds a piece of the puzzle: Lindsay Boxer is a homicide inspector in the San Francisco Police Department, Claire Washburn is a medical examiner, Jill Bernhardt is an assistant D.A., and Cindy Thomas just started working the crime desk of the San Francisco Chronicle . But the usual procedures aren't bringing them any closer to stopping the killings. So these women form a Women's Murder Club to collaborate outside the box and pursue the case by sidestepping their bosses and giving one another a hand. 1st to Die is the start of a blazingly fast-paced and sensationally entertaining new series of crime thrillers. ©2001 by James Patterson (P)2001 by Time Warner AudioBooks
