The trial is harrowing and far from a slam-dunk, leaving the verdict in the hands of the twelve-member jury. While Boxer braces for what is surely a major situation, Yuki Castellano, the lawyer of the Murder Club, assumes second chair in this major trial, pitting the wily District Attorney against Grant, who has chosen to represent himself. After arresting him, this Connor Grant denies ever saying anything about being culpable and he is sent to trial for murdering twenty-five innocent people and injuring many more, including Joe. Soon thereafter, Boxer overhears a man claim responsibility, almost unable to believe her own ears. An explosion rocks and destroys the building. After agreeing to see her estranged husband, Joe, they take a stroll close to Sci-Tron, the city's science museum. San Francisco is not immune, which leaves Sergeant Lindsay Boxer on high alert. The world is beset with a new terrorist organisation, loosely called GAR, the Great Antiestablishment Reset, happy to wreak havoc at every turn.
Working alongside Maxine Paetro to craft sixteen novels in the Women's Murder Club, Patterson has been able to present high-impact writing peppered with some interesting legal and criminal angles. Another piece that shows that Patterson knows how to choose some of his co-authors to produce entertaining writing.
