Summary
After a dramatic shoot out at a ferry dock, Detective Lindsay Boxer is called to the scene to find that three people have been killed, and one of her closest friends, Claire, has been shot and lies bleeding, whilst the murderer is on the run. Lindsay promises Claire that she'll hunt down this killer and bring him to justice, but sadly, it doesn't prove to be so straightforward.
A man comes forward claiming to be the ferry murderer, and Yuki Castellano, one of the Women's Murder Club, prepares to set out the charges against him. But it's not all over; a child has been abducted and is still missing. To increase the mystery and confusion, there are a series of suspicious and unexplained deaths in the building where Cindy lives - yet another of the Women's Murder Club is in danger. Lindsay discovers yet more abducted children, and the hunt begins in earnest to return the children to their parents.

Not really enjoying the new narrator
story was OK, not my favourite so far.
although I've struggled listening to the narrator. I don't find her as easy listening, which takes my focus away from the story. other than that I enjoyed it.

Inconsistencies plus terrible narrating
The narration is simply awful, wooden and expressionless. I had to increase the speed to 1.2 otherwise it sounded slow and laboured, like someone reading from an autocue which is too far away to see properly. Also can’t understand the inconsistencies in pronunciation from early books. Jakobi which previously was pronounced Jackobi is suddenly now Jer-ko-bee. The story itself was okay but lacked depth and pace, a series of crimes all solved pretty quickly with no real suspense or drama.

Narrator
I would prefer a narrator who does not create so many character voices but just read the story

I may return, but this narrator has put me off!
The pace of narration really has put me off. She is great at character voices, but general narration is slow, deliberate & she sounds miserable... sorry!! I wish Pat had continued with the series. possibly will return to the women's murder club at another point. Womens (she pronounces this wowmans instead of wimans as it should be, also kind of annoyjng)!

Great book
Great book but terrible narration. Disappointed that it’s the same narrator for the next five books.

Not as good a narrator as previous books
Narrators need to ensure the correct pronunciation for names as previous I found it annoying it’s like using different names for the same person!
Absolutely average.

Simply awful sound effects
Terrible new sound effects spoiled a great series - they were so bad I couldn't finish listening! The new narrator also pronounces the names differently which is annoying 5 books in. Really disappointing

I loved the story
I love all the James Patterson collections. But I can’t get used to this new narrator. It still enjoyed it

miss Pat Starr
I loved the voice and expressions of emotion Pat Starr had when narrating the previos books. it brought so much more to the feel of the book. shame i see no further narrations by Pat for this series. like the series though so will continue but less engaged.

I can't listen to this narrator.
I just can't. I miss Pat's voice narrating. She became the characters and I was able to connect with her and follow the story intently. Not so with this narrator. I'm disappointed.

130+ chapters does not need a musical sting!
Firstly I didn't like the cadence of the new narrator but I got used to it. Whoever produced this performance should have at least been aware of name pronunciations from previous books to maintain continuity.
Patterson books have always had way too many chapters but normally that's fine, in this case there's a 10 second long sting for each one! Do the math and you spend a lot of time listening to that not the story.
I'll carry on with book 7 but I'm sad there's no change back in author.

Great story, stop the sound effects.
Really great story, plot and narration. Also, the volume is not so jumpy from one chapter to the next, thanks for ironing that out. But please, stop the sound effects at the top and tail of each chapter! This isn't a children's book. I really don't care for it.
