While all this is happening, the members of the “club” are facing their own particular battles, adding new strain to a situation that is already dangerously tense.
These could be serial killings, they could be acts of vigilantism, or there could be something less brazen behind these killings.
It’s not long before she discovers that each of the victims was an influential criminal, each one of them involved in nefarious enterprises important to the press and the public. Sergeant Lyndsay Boxer is drawn into a strange case that blurs the line between assassination and serial killing when three people are simultaneously killed, by one precise gunshot each, in three different cities. The cases that she and her colleagues (each from different professions that coalesce perfectly to create a formidable crime-solving team) converge to investigate invariably involve murder – as the name suggests – and are typically complex while remaining entertainingly fast-paced. This series, featuring fan favourite Detective Lindsay Boxer, is set mostly in San Francisco. In this blog, I’ll be choosing ten of those series, providing a quick overview of each of them along with a look at the most recent instalment. Certainly we all know Alex Cross and The Women’s Murder Club, but are you aware that Patterson has created and authored books that form more than 20 different series ranging from adult fiction to middle-grade readers? And that’s without mentioning the standalones. But we’re really here about the books themselves.
As it turns out, he’s also a notable champion of bookshops and booksellers, which means, of course, that we’re impelled to do him the proper credit. Whatever opinion you may have of the man and his work, there is absolutely no denying that an output as prolific as Patterson’s demands a certain respect.
