I really enjoy reading James Patterson books, but they are starting to get alittle predictable! I realised who'd done it almost straight away, which kinda spoilt it for me when I was proved right, but it was still a 'nice read'.
8th Confession
8th Confession is the 8th book in the Womens Murder Club series.
We find our main character, Lindsey Boxer, in a more settle peaceful stage in her life. She's living with her boyfriend Joe (although she still keeps his engagement ring in its box) and life seems pretty good.
