When a horrifying attack leaves one of the four members of the Women's Murder Club struggling for her life, the others fight to keep a madman behind bars before anyone else is hurt. And Lindsay Boxer and her new partner in the San Francisco police department run flat-out to stop a series of kidnappings that has electrified the city: children are being plucked off the streets together with their nannies-- but the kidnappers aren't demanding ransom. Amid uncertainty and rising panic, Lindsay juggles the possibility of a new love with an unsolvable investigation, and the knowledge that one member of the club could be on the brink of death. And just when everything appears momentarily under control, the case takes a terrifying turn, putting an entire city in lethal danger. Lindsay must make a choice she never dreamed she'd face--with no certainty that either outcome has more than a prayer of success.

I have been avidly consuming the Women's Murder Club novels for the past month or so - loving my first experience of crime writing and Patterson's authoring.
With this book we find Lyndsey Boxer chasing down a gunman who has killed 5 people on board a San Francisco Ferry. Pair this with another storyline of missing children and it makes for another standard Women's Murder Club outing. They are following the same format as the previous few books - 2 story lines intertwined.
I however found this one slightly less satisfying than the other books - the story lines and suspects didn't grip me quite so much and it lacked menace. The other girls seem to feature rarely and it seemed a bit too formulaic for me. Hoping 7 will be back on form as i have been enjoying these...
