In San Francisco, a series of sensational killings have rocked the community, bringing the Women’s Murder Club into the mix to search out the clues and find the threads that connect them.
Lt. Lindsay Boxer is determined to find the killer, but to do so, she must look into the past to discover what is going on in the present, and to find the motive that will tell her and her friends what is happening.
Meanwhile, her long lost father, Marty Boxer, shows up one day, reminding her of the pain of that loss when he left many years before. While giving him a second chance seems appropriate, will Lindsay later regret this choice? And how does her father somehow connect to what is happening now?
Is the killer after revenge, or is there more to his story?
Like most of the tales in this series, 2nd Chance takes the reader along a suspenseful path to finding the answers…and just when the women think the case is solved, they are thrown a curve. Will the real killer turn out to be the most unexpected of suspects?
How does the theme of second chances reveal much of what is happening? And what other shocking twists and turns will remind Lindsay and her friends that nothing is certain in life, and that nothing can take the place of the true connections in their lives. 3.5 stars, for a suspenseful yet predictable story.

That is the sad thing about him…he is still suspenseful but very predictable!

I listened to the first womens murder club book and while it was good, it was a not a series I felt I needed to continue on with. I like your thoughts on this second book.

I’ve only ever read one book by Patterson, even though my best friend have urged me to read more of his novels. It sounds like a good book, this one.
Love your blog background!

Thanks, Melinda…I found it on Pinterest. Glad you could stop by, and thanks for the “follow.”
I don’t enjoy all of Patterson’s books…my favorites are those about Alex Cross and the Women’s Murder Club.

I enjoyed the early books in this series but grew tired of them after a while – not enough character development.
