The fifth in the Womens Murder Club series wasn't my favorite. That being said it was very interesting. The series loses a bit of steam with this book and leaves me not anxious to pick up the next in the series. Hopefully things will pick up again in the 6th book, otherwise I might give the series the ol' heave ho! The plot was interesting and original at least, otherwise I might have abandoned the book before finishing it. Is anyone else a fan of this series?

The book blurb reads:
A young mother is recuperating in a San Francisco hospital when she is suddenly gasping for breath. The call button fails to bring help in time. The hospital's doctors, some of the best in the nation, are completely mystified by her death. How did this happen?

APOCALYPSE NEARS.

This is not the first such case at the hospital. Just as patients are about to be released with a clean bill of health, their conditions take a devastating turn for the worse.

Accompanied by the newest member of the Women's Murder Club, Yuki Castellano, Lieutenant Lindsay Boxer probes deeper into the incidents. Could these cases just be appalling coincidences? Or is a maniac playing God with people's lives? When someone close to the Women's Murder Club begins to exhibit the same frightening symptoms, Lindsay fears no one is safe.
