As San Francisco's most glamorous millionaires mingle at the party of the year, someone is watching--waiting for a chance to take vengeance on Isa and Ethan Bailey, the city's most celebrated couple. Finally, the killer pinpoints the ideal moment, and it's the
perfect murder. Not a trace of evidence is left behind in their glamorous home.
As Detective Lindsay Boxer investigates the high-profile murder, someone else is found brutally executed--a preacher with a message of hope for the homeless. His death nearly falls through the cracks, but when reporter Cindy Thomas hears about it, she knows the story could be
huge. Probing deeper into the victim's history, she discovers he may not have been quite as saintly as everyone thought.
As the hunt for two criminals tests the limits of the Women's Murder Club, Lindsay sees sparks fly between Cindy and her partner, Detective Rich Conklin. The Women's Murder Club now faces its toughest challenge: will love destroy all that four friends have built? The exhilarating new chapter in the Women's Murder Club series,
The 8th Confession serves up a double dose of speed-charged twists and shocking revelations as only James Patterson can. And remember, this is the only Murder Club episode of the year.

| I've read all James Patterson's Women's Murder Club books. I just started this one and already can't put it down... |

The book is a typical James Patterson thriller. I can't say enought about his
books. They keep you turning the pages to see what is next. I recommend this book. |

| Interesting in the setting descriptions but not overly exciting in plot line and story development. Having read only one prior WM Club novel, did not find the characters interesting or well developed. |

A bus blows up during rush hour in downtown San Francisco, it turns out to be a meth lab. Days later a bum who turns out to be a dangerous drug dealer is murdered. Meanwhile the City's upper crust are dropping dead for no apparent reason until a connection to a 20 year old cold case is discovered. Then there is an odd trial with a hung jury that promises to cost the state hundreds of thousands if it goes to retrial.
There is a lot going on in this book, and while it makes for a quick, entertaining read, I found the sidestory romances to be flimsy at best. The writers tried to pack way too much into the 350-page novel and would have been beter off focusing on the drug dealer and society murders. Also, the ending--sounds strikingly similar to Agatha Christie's "Murder on the Orient Express"--no points given for originality here.
Good summer beach read for readers who are looking for light drama. |
