8TH CONFESSION Women's Murder Club Book 8

Behind the closed doors of San Fransisco's grandest mansions, beautiful people party the nights away in a heady mix of money, drugs, drink and sex. But the rich and famous aren't the only ones with the keys to these most exclusive addresses. Someone else is intent on crashing the party. A rock star, a fashion designer, a software tycoon and a millionaire heiress. Each is glamorous, stunningly attractive and incredibly rich, but their similarities don't end there. They are all dead. Interest in them certainly doesn't die when they do, and Detective Lindsay Boxer is quickly assigned to the case. In stark contrast, few people seem as interested when a local hero Bagman Jesus is brutally murdered. Reporter Cindy Thomas soon becomes interested in his story. His work with the homeless of San Fransisco was admirable. He was loved by so many, so who would want to kill him? Could the down-and-out Samaritan have been hiding a dark secret? It isn't just Lindsey who has questions that need answering. Lindsey fiercely depends on Claire's help to crack her case. Both seek guidance from their friends but in doing so are forced to confront feelings they had buried away. And things aren't so simple for Yuki either. The Women's Murder Club need each other more than ever. 458pp, Penguin paperback.
