Search - The 6th Target (Women's Murder Club, Bk 6)

This is the latest book in the Women's Murder Club series featuring Lindsay Boxer and friends. I was really looking forward to this book as it has been a while since the last book in the series, but I was disappointed. There were too many storylines going on in this book. The kidnapping cases ended up feeling insignificant with a poorly laid out story line. The ferry killer's case was interesting. Lindsay and her friends had so many negative things going on in their lives. When put together it did not all seem believable. This book seemed choppy - like James Patterson and Maxine Paetro wrote their own parts and put them together in the book without consulting one another. It did not have the typical James Patterson feel that I love. Overall, it was not his best book, but it was interesting enough to keep me reading.

Lindsay and the gang are back. A nice 6th book for this series. Again, I'm missing that "solving it together" thing they had in the first books. I think this "co-author" thing James Patterson has going on isn't working. His books have lost something. I'll continue with this series, of course, and hope for the best... I adore the characters, I just want to see more interaction with the girls.

This is a really good book. Sixth in The Women's Murder Club series, it is not a story of the women banding together and performing amazing feats to bring about true justice. There are two separate plots, connected by women who are members of the WMC, and I predict the reader will have trouble putting it down. Or, if the reader must stop reading for a while, the plot lines of murder and a bit of mayhem will creep into her/his thoughts and s/he might as well give in and pick up the book to finish it.

The conclusion is very satisfactory, causing me to think that Patterson must have been listening to his readers, dissatisfied with the frothy and semi-lifelike plots we've been given lately.

Number 6 in the Women's Murder Club series, "The 6th Target" by James Patterson and Maxine Paetro packs all the wallop of a skilled master author of police procedural fiction. From page 5, when Claire Washburn is gunned down trying to stop a shooting spree the action never stops.
Patterson and Paetro keep fans of the excellent series reading as Lindsay Boxer must juggle three separate cases to find her friend's assailant.
Be careful what you wish for, you may get it. Lindsay reduced in grade, is back working the streets while her partner is promoted to her former position. Plot twists and curves bring home a winner for the reader.

This book was missing something. It's hard to put my finger on exactly what it is b/c it was a good book but lacked some of the magic the others had. There were far too many storylines too. Each story could have made its own book but since they were all smooshed together in this book they didn't get the attention they deserved. The outcomes were far too quick and easy. I'll keep up with this series but hope it gets back to its roots.

My first encounter with the WMC, but definitely not my last. I was so hooked on Cross that I was hesitant to delve into his other works. I shouldn't have waited so long. He's a master!

The gang is back to solve another case, except that this time, there are numerous parallel mysteries running amok in Patterson's THE 6TH TARGET.

Fred Brinkley, a man who hears voices inside his head, is videotaped murdering four innocent people aboard a ferry. He's charged with attempting to kill two others, one of whom happens to be a now critically injured Claire Washburn.

A five-year-old piano playing prodigy by the name of Madison Tyler is snatched off the street along with her nanny, and with no ransom note coming in to the family, things aren't looking good.

At Blakely Arms, an apartment complex, things are going from bad to worse as a dog is viciously murdered, residents are attacked, and people are beginning to suspect a neighbor in the building.

Demotions, pregnancies, relationship break-ups, life-altering decisons -- all of these plot lines vie for space within THE 6TH TARGET. As the four players of The Women's Murder Club set out to get their lives together while solving a series of mysteries, you'll be glad that you're along for this fast-paced, thrilling ride.

This is the 6th book in the Women's Murder Club series. I typically like James Pattersons book and this one was good. Maybe not his best writing but an interesting storyline and well written. The story seemed to skip around a bit with several different storylines rather than focus on just one thing.

I gave my review 3 stars because it is James Patterson; however, I was disappointed with this book! It was almost as if he decided to end the book without really wrapping it up. None of the plots had anything to do with each other. I understand it is a series so maybe there will be more to come later, but I expected something more robust from the author.

This book was not the best in the series, Too many story lines which made the story choppy. I hope the next book is better

This book was not one of my favorites. While I liked it, it didn't really keep my attention like the other ones did. There were too many storylines going on here. It seemed really choppy too, kind of like each writer wrote their own parts and then just threw them together.

I enjoy Patterson

James Patterson knows how to tell a story

Good book, but not my favorite by him.

Four strong women who are stronger together and can accomplish more than one of them alone. Even though only one is a policewoman they all help in solving murders.

as usual with all of the women's murder club books, this one was great. can't wait to read the next one. James Patterson is one of my most favorite writers.

Excellent Book. If you've read the first five you will love this one. I couldn't put it down.

Great book if you like the Women's Murder Club.

awesome,i read it from cover to cover in one setting and cant wait for #7

Good book. 6th book in the series. Can't wait for the next one to come out.
