A KILLER WHO CHOOSES VICTIMS PERSONALLY

A DETECTIVE WHO TAKES CRIMES TOO MUCH TO HEART

She suffers unsettling medical symptoms, and her friends and confidantes in the Women's Murder Club warn Lindsay against taking the crimes too much to heart. With lives at stake, the detective can't help but follow the case into ever more terrifying terrain.

A decorated officer, loving wife, devoted mother, and loyal friend, Lindsay has an unwavering integrity that has never failed her. But now she is confronting a killer who is determined to undermine it all.

From the Publisher

Narrator January LaVoy depicts these characters beautifully. Her Hispanic and Southern accents are superb, and she treats even minor characters with her skill and talent. The nonstop action of the thriller includes domestic dust-ups for Lindsay and Yuki as well as the impossible odds of finding a killer and getting a winning verdict in a difficult case. These characters vibrate with humanity as portrayed by LaVoy. What a great listen! Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.”
