______________________________________________________

Beautiful young women are disappearing by the dozen.

A celebration is cut short when a concerned father crashes Detective Inspector Lindsay Boxer’s party. His daughter is missing – and she’s not the only one.

DI Lindsay Boxer has been tracking a chilling pattern- a Jane Doe washed ashore, a body in Golden Gate Park, a string of missing women across San Francisco. Someone is hunting the city’s most vulnerable, and the count keeps rising.

When Lindsay reaches out to Interpol, their warning is stark- these cases are nearly impossible to solve, and the women are almost never found alive.

But ‘impossible’ has never stopped the Women’s Murder Club before.
