I have read all the James Patterson Alex Cross and Michael Bennett books and wanted to try this one by him. I have also read all the Jesse Stone and Spenser books by Robert Parker. As you can see, that is a lot of macho men and I was ready for a change and that change being strong females.
So, with that being said, I read 1st to Die, and I enjoyed meeting the Women’s Murder Club of Lindsey (SFPD), Jill (ADA), Claire (ME), and Cindy (SF Chronicle Writer). The book is told in first person from Lindsey’s POV, and we get a background of the Fab Four. We also learn that Lindsey has a life changing illness that she deals with throughout the book.
Together, they solved a crime, but I will admit and tell you I was sad to see Chris Raleigh die. I was like really. Come on, Patterson!
