By: James Patterson, Maxine Paetro

Narrated by: Carolyn McCormick

As San Francisco's most glamorous millionaires mingle at the party of the year, someone is watching--waiting for a chance to take vengeance on Isa and Ethan Bailey, the city's most celebrated couple. Finally, the killer pinpoints the ideal moment, and it's the perfect murder. Not a trace of evidence is left behind in their glamorous home.

As Detective Lindsay Boxer investigates the high-profile murder, someone else is found brutally executed--a preacher with a message of hope for the homeless. His death nearly falls through the cracks, but when reporter Cindy Thomas hears about it, she knows the story could be huge. Probing deeper into the victim's history, she discovers he may not have been quite as saintly as everyone thought.

As the hunt for two criminals tests the limits of the Women's Murder Club, Lindsay sees sparks fly between Cindy and her partner, Detective Rich Conklin. The Women's Murder Club now faces its toughest challenge: will love destroy all that four friends have built? The exhilarating new chapter in the Women's Murder Club series, The 8th Confession serves up a double dose of speed-charged twists and shocking revelations as only James Patterson can. And remember, this is the only Murder Club episode of the year.

The Eight Confessions

Another great story of the SFPD solving another set e bizarre murders. The continuing story of the members of The Women's Murder Club.

Murder club series is always a good read but....

I always enjoy Patterson's portrayal of women without all the nonsense of getting their hair and nails done. However, the story like for this book is a bit frenetic, missing a true combination of events.

Alright

It was a good read but easy to figure out; not much suspense. I am still glad I read it though.

Awesome plot

I love this whole series. It’s captivating and holds your attention. This one in particular is a what feels like a short read.

Reader Disappointing

I had a lot of trouble getting used to the reader - who reads mechanically, putting the same amount of emphasis on each word - mechanical.
A good reader enhances my enjoyment of a book - in this case I had to make an effort to persevere in order to get through a pleasant story.
