Marianne (Australia) (2012/07/29): 11th Hour is the 11th book in the popular Women’s Murder Club series by James Patterson and is, once again, co-written with Maxine Paetro. The story starts with a pregnant Lindsay Boxer trying to cover two very different cases. Husband Joe has gone off to Washington for meetings and Lindsay’s partner Rich Conklin has made it clear to his fiancée, reporter Cindy Thomas, that he is eager to become a father. Cindy, however, is much too involved in her career to consider motherhood just now. ME Claire Washburn is swamped with cases and Yuki Castellano is sleeping with Lindsay’s boss, Lt. Jackson Brady. The first case is a killer dubbed Revenge by the press, who is murdering drug dealers with guns taken from the SFPD evidence locker, raising the question of whether Revenge is a vigilante cop. The second case involves the discovery of two heads at differing stages of decomposition, in the garden of famous star, Harry Chandler. Chandler was acquitted of murdering his wife when no body could be found, as is the case with these heads and more that are dug up in his garden. The plot had a few twists early on and got me intrigued and turning pages. I thought Lindsay was a bit quick to mistrust Joe, but maybe we can blame her pregnancy hormones. Social media and 3D imaging in forensic anthropology had an interesting role to play in solving the case of the heads, but the standard of stake-out conducted on the suspect in the vigilante cop case seemed unbelievably bad. All up, this installment of WMC was certainly better than the disappointing 10th Anniversary.
