About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

The Sunday Times bestseller

Three missing women

When three teachers disappear without a trace, Sergeant Lindsay Boxer takes the lead in the investigation. But with no clues and no suspects, the odds of finding the women alive are getting slimmer by the second.

Two impossible cases

Under pressure at work, Lindsay needs support at home. But her husband Joe is drawn into an encounter with a woman who's seen a ghost - a notorious war criminal from her Eastern European home country, walking the streets of San Francisco.

One determined detective

When Joe's informant disappears, the two investigations collide. It will take the combined skills of Lindsay, Joe and the entire Women's Murder Club to protect their city, and themselves, from a monster.

Critic reviews

Everything you love about Patterson and the Women's Murder Club – smart characters, shocking twists, and a villain so evil you count down to the very last page to discover what will happen next. (Lisa Gardner)
I absolutely loved it and couldn't turn the pages quickly enough. Great plot, fantastic storytelling and characters that spring off the page – all the right ingredients for a thriller!
Absolutely terrific, high octane, really pacy ... sets the bar for thrilling reads and this book delivers everything we've come to love in a Patterson novel. Every scene is a film, every character real and every plot point leaves us breathless. (Jo Spain)

 I was actually really excited to start this book as I really want it to be but by this offer before but wasn't sure if you could read them as stand-alone but I found out that you can so in this but you've got two cases going on at the same time so our story starts with Anna who notices this man across the street to be the one who murdered her family and who did other things to her and why it's in the US she does not know as she is from a different country what I cannot spell so Joe who is an investigation person I think I forget he official title start looking into to petrovic who is the guy who murdered Anna family and his wife is investigating a disappearance of 3 teachers her name is Lindsay they find one of the teachers dead in a hotel now they need to find the other two this was a really interesting book usually I find it hard remember what's going on with both investigations as I usually don't like that sort of stuff but this one interested me and I assumed that their linked in some way from the beginning
