Summary

Behind the closed doors of San Fransisco's grandest mansions, beautiful people party the nights away in a heady mix of money, drugs, drink and sex. But the rich and famous aren't the only ones with the keys to these most exclusive of addresses, someone else is intent on crashing the party.

A rock star, a fashion designer, a software tycoon, and a millionaire heiress. Each is glamorous, stunningly attractive and incredibly rich, but their similarities don't end there, they have something else in common too. They are all dead.

Just as the rich and famous are the talk of the town when they're alive, interest in them certainly doesn't die when they do. In stark contrast, few people seem as interested when a local hero, Bagman Jesus, is brutally murdered. Reporter Cindy soon becomes interested in his story: his work with the homeless of San Fransisco was admirable. He was loved by so many - who would want to kill him? Could the down-and-out Samaritan have been hiding a dark secret?

And of course it isn't just Lindsey who has questions to answer, she fiercely depends on Claire's help to crack her case.

Meanwhile, as Cindy tries to solve a mystery of her own, she seeks guidance from her friends, but in doing so, both Cindy and Lindsey are forced to confront feelings they'd buried away, and Yuki falls quite literally head over heels in love - but the man of her dreams isn't quite who he seems.

The Women's Murder Club need each other more than ever, but with tensions running high, will the friends be strong enough to stick together - or will the strain tear them apart?

Music ruins it

The book itself is fantastic and I love The Women's Murder Club but what is with the sound effects all through the prologue and the music at the ends of chapters???? No need for it. When we read a book we dont need sound effects and we dont need them when we listen to them.

An older recording but still worth listening.

If, like me, you've bought most of this series of books from Audible, you'll initially be disappointed by a different reader as names are pronounced differently which caused a bit of confusion to start with. And if you can somehow ignore the background cheesy music used for dramatic effect, you're going to love this story like all the others so far

Wonderfully absorbing

This is the first book i have downloaded and was sceptical as to listening to rather than reading a book. I was in for a great suprise, this is a thoroughly good book and so well narrated. At first i thought i would listen to it a bit at a time but could not stop listening until it had finished. I liked the fact that two or three cases were going on at the same time which made the story line more interesting.

Justice is a funny thing

Linz moves on down her chosen path with a bump or two. The meaning of justice will make you think.

Music ruins a good story

Why have they included background music to the story? It is very distracting and cheesy. Just stick to telling the story. It is not a film

Not great

I get the feeling I didn't quite 'get' this book. There were a couple of different threads going on in the story, and they seemed to be totally unrelated, so I'm not sure why they were in the same book...

I didn't like the narrator, and found that she didn't differentiate between the lead characters well, so I lost track of who was doing what.

Maybe I should have read/listened to the other Women's Murder Club books first, and this may have made more sense then, but after listening to this one, I'm not tempted to get the others.
