About This Book

The fifteenth entry in the Women's Murder Club begins at the Four Seasons Hotel where four people are found shot in adjoining rooms, the connections between them suggesting layers of espionage and professional betrayal. When the case pulls Lindsay Boxer toward matters that intersect with her husband Joe's undisclosed work history, the novel becomes as much about what a marriage can survive as about who pulled the triggers.

January LaVoy's fluency with this series is evident, moving through Lindsay's controlled professional voice and the simmering domestic tension with equal assurance. The thriller's pace is relentless in a way that favors audio over print, and LaVoy's ability to land each chapter-ending hook without melodrama keeps the momentum clean throughout.
