Publisher Description
Your best friend
Lindsay Boxer is pregnant at last! But her work doesn't slow for a second. When millionaire Chaz Smith is mercilessly gunned down, she discovers that the murder weapon is linked to the deaths of four of San Francisco's most untouchable criminals. And it was taken from her own department's evidence locker. Anyone could be the killer--even her closest friends.
Or a vicious killer?
Lindsay is called next to the most bizarre crime scene she's ever seen: two bodiless heads elaborately displayed in the garden of a world-famous actor. Another head is unearthed in the garden, and Lindsay realizes that the ground could hide hundreds of victims.
You won't know until the 11th hour
A reporter launches a series of vicious articles about the cases and Lindsay's personal life is laid bare. But this time she has no one to turn to--especially not Joe. 11TH HOUR is the most shocking, most emotional, and most thrilling Women's Murder Club novel ever.

"This was a pretty typical Women's Murder Club book. Although I didn't find the crime particularly unusual, I liked the way the characters' lives were changing. In this case, I was definately more interested in the backstory than I was the actual criminal plot line."
— Dawn (4 out of 5 stars)
Quotes
-
“I can’t believe how good Patterson is, whether he’s doing a Washington police yarn or traveling a different road with a female narrator. He is always on the mark. I have never begun a Patterson book and been able to put it down.”
— Larry King -
“As readers have come to expect, the pages turn at an alarming rate and contain an abundance of thrills and surprises that are tempered only by the emotional heft that comes with such a well established franchise...its cast, both old and new alike, are every bit as memorable as the macabre world they are made to inhabit...11th Hour is an impressively high caliber entry in this enduring series, and the authors get the mix of procedural and personal just right. Longtime readers will delight in its chillingly complex cases and the opportunity to revisit continually evolving (and always engaging) characters while first time readers will wonder what took them so long.”
— Examiner.com -
“Patterson and Paetro are at their best here, weaving a number of plots together to create a novel that dips and flows across genre lines...A series that shows no signs of fatigue or flagging.”
— BookReporter.com -
“Those who haven’t read any of the novels in the Women’s Murder Club series are cheating themselves.”

" Enjoyable, mindless read. Fun to revisit the characters again. Ending is not too believable. "
— Bat713, 2/13/2014 -
" This was a pretty Typical James Patterson Novel. It isn't an Alex Cross novel so I was learning/re-learning about different characters this time around so that was about the biggest difference. overall it was enjoyable and kept me entertained for about a week. "

— Sonia, 11/26/2013 -
" Love the series, can't help seeing angie in the (blonde) title character. I ignore the blonde references. SF looks good/bad here, some of the geography is suspect to locals. "
— Bonnie, 11/25/2013 -

— Allyvlee, 12/6/2012 -
" Is it Patterson or Paetro? Dislike dual authorship when it comes to a big name like Patterson. Did he just sign off on the manuscript or what? Extremely quick read and was fun as all the rest were. The characters seemed to lack substance these days though "
— Andy, 11/8/2012 -
" Really enjoyed this murder mystery book. I am intrigued by Patterson's writing and would like to read more, if I can get my hands on them! "
— Kenzie, 9/3/2012 -
" As with all of James Patterson's books, this one did not disappoint! I truly love the Women's Murder Club series, although, I have to admit, I will read anything by this author. Patterson is my favorite! "
— Gail, 8/3/2012 -
" A typical Patterson/Paetro novel...easy to read...very short chapters...interesting story, but nothing outstanding. Good for the pool or the beach, but don't expect to be glued to your seat with the overwhelming need to read cover to cover in one sitting. "
