Women's Murder Club

I love this show! It's based on a book series by James Patterson and it's about four women, a homicide detective, a medical examiner, an assistant district attourney, and a newspaper reporter who team together to solve homicide investigations. First of all, I really like this show because it's a lot like CSI, which I have always loved! But most of all, I love this show because it shows serious female power! These women have had trouble in the past with other people in the department, so they have decided to form this exclusive "club" and they all help each other out. I really think you should check out this show! Plus, these women are hot!!! The bad thing is, however, that it is on ABC on Friday nights at 9:00pm. I have been recording it each time and then watching it later... I think that's the best idea! You can also watch them online, but I think they are kinda slow on uploading them.

I am also beginning to read the series. James Patterson is an amazing writer and, from what I've heard, these books are amazing, as well. There are 6 books and they are each a different homicide investigation with the same characters in the show, but not the same cases. I think you should read these as well!!!


Here they are, in order:
A serial killer is stalking and murdering newlyweds on their honeymoon. San Francisco Homicide inspector Lindsay Boxer takes the case and along the way meets three other women—a lawyer, a reporter, and the city medical examiner. Joining forces to solve this gruesome crime, the Women's Murder Club is born.

When family members of San Francisco cops are found dead, Detective Lindsay Boxer, Medical examiner Claire Washburn, reporter Cindy Thomas and Assistant D.A. Jill Bernhardt are faced with a tough case. As the killer looks for his next victim, the women must quickly track him down before he kills again.

Lindsay Boxer and friends must track down a deadly terror group who begins their killing spree by blowing up an expensive townhouse—with the family still inside. In the meantime, a member of the club may be in some trouble of her own and Lindsay could be too late to save her.

After an arrest goes awry, Lindsay finds herself facing police brutality charges. But taking time off to cool down proves harder then she thought. As she heads out of town, Lindsay finds herself in the middle of a killing spree, and must locate the killers before they find her. Back in San Francisco, the Women's Murder Club helps to get Lindsay through the trial…but will she be found innocent?

Patients at San Francisco medical Center are mysteriously dying hours before they are to be released with a clean bill of health. Lindsay and the rest of the Women's Murder Club begin their own investigation into the hospital, but the list of suspects proves to be as long as the list of patients.

Someone opens fire on unsuspecting pedestrians and one of the Women's Murder Club is caught in the middle. As she struggles for her life, the others must work fast to track down the madman. In another part of the city, somebody is targeting children and their nannies. As the kidnappers await their random, Lindsay and company are faced with finding the mastermind before more children are harmed.
