The Women’s Murder Club is back with a fiendish new case which the four friends will need to call upon all their ingenuity to solve

22 seconds… until Lindsay Boxer loses her badge—or her life.

SFPD Sergeant Lindsay Boxer has guns on her mind.

There’s buzz of a last-ditch shipment of drugs and weapons crossing the Mexican border ahead of new restrictive gun laws. Before Lindsay can act, her top informant tips her to a case that hits disturbingly close to home.

Former cops. Professional hits. All with the same warning scrawled on their bodies:

You talk, you die.

Now it’s Lindsay’s turn to choose.

San Francisco Police Department Sergeant Lindsay Boxer’s FBI agent husband, Joe Molinari, is investigating a group determined to repeal a law banning the sale of automatic weapons. The group is linked to a Mexican cartel that smuggle guns across the border, along with copious amounts of drugs.

Meanwhile, Lindsay is investigating the suspicious death of a corrupt former cop who was serving life in prison. When two other people connected to the former cop turn up dead, Lindsay believes someone is trying to silence them.

As Lindsay and Joe both delve into areas where they’re not wanted, they become targets of some very dangerous people.
