Brought to you by Penguin.

Will she live to see her 21st birthday?

When a distraught mother pleads with reporter Cindy Thomas to investigate the disappearance of her daughter, Tara, and her baby granddaughter, Cindy goes straight to SFPD Sergeant Lindsay Boxer.

The prime suspect is Tara's husband, but he tells a conflicting story that paints Tara as a wayward wife, not a missing person.

Is this a tragic case of domestic violence? Or is the truth linked to a more complex network of killings?

As the case grows into something far bigger than any of them could have imagined, the Women's Murder Club will need to work together to unpick the truth from a web of lies.

21st Birthday: (Women’s Murder Club 21) - What a great read!!

Reviewed in Australia on 18 April 2021

Verified Purchase

It was so hard to put this book down. I found it more intense than previous Women's Murder Club novels and it had me on the edge right from the beginning. A few twists and turns that you didn't see coming and the interest was there right to the end when the truth is revealed. It was one of those novels when you couldn't quite work out the murderer until almost the very end. Couldn't recommend it more highly and can't wait for Women’s Murder Club 22.

So good I read it quicker than any other book I've read recently. Really enjoyable. I would have liked it drawn out a little bit more on regards to father and son though.

I have read all of the murder club books and each one doesn’t disappoint. My late Brother Anthony gave me the very first book awaiting my sons birth in 2002. I cannot wait for the next book in the series.

21st BIRTHDAY HARDBACK

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 March 2021

Not sure I understand the One star reviews, but, that's what opinions are for. This, for me, is a return to cracking form for team Patterson and Paetro. From first to last page, just twists after twist,. The tension in the final third had me so gripped I just had to read on til the end without stopping. The domestic scenes with Joe, Martha and Julie, fitted in and don't hold up the action, and the other members of the WMC all had a bigger better part than some previous novelsl; If the writing team can keep up this standard then I truly can't wait for the 22nd. (But I guess I will have to!)

A fast-paced book but the ending lets it down

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 March 2021

Verified Purchase

This is another fast-paced instalment of the long running series, with good characters and a twisting plot. Unfortunately the ending felt rushed and abrupt with some questions left unanswered.

Three and a half - felt unfinished

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 May 2021

More of the same from the Women’s Murder Club. A woman and child are reported missing by the woman’s distraught (but perhaps slightly crazy) mother. Is the husband/father responsible? Or is the missing woman a spendthrift attention seeker who’ll be home when the money runs out?
Everything procceds as usual: Lindsay investigates, Claire provides the medical detail, Yuki agonises if she’s done enough to put the guilty party away, and Cindy chases the story that will give her a best selling true crime book.
There is an unusual twist that derives from the husband’s own background but to be honest I didn’t feel this was one of the best of the series. The suspect is unsympathetic; the sections on Lindsay’s home life (cute child, unbelievably supportive husband) feel like they’d been clipped from earlier books; and whilst the ending provided an explanation, it just all felt unfinished somehow.
A series I normally enjoy, so hopefully better luck next time.

Totally unbelievable

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 September 2021

Verified Purchase

The worst of the series. It dragged on then suddenly ,despite having no evidence, they try the husband for murder. You are left wondering how this can be possible. The detectives changed their minds about his guilt despite evidence that the husband had an alibi for one of the murders and that 2 other murders which were committed the same way were conveniently forgotten about and never mentioned again. The husband had no link to these and was not charged with them despite them having the same modus operandi!Bizarre! It made no sense. A case like that would never have gone to trial. Not worth reading!

Back to the quality you'd expect from JP

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 March 2021

Verified Purchase

A cracking storyline with lots of twists and turns. Kept the pages turning into the wee small hours.
I almost gave up on JP novels as many of the more recent ones felt very shallow and formulaic ,like they were part of a mass production plan to make money off his reputation but frankly, failed to deliver the goods. However, I relented with this one as I have every other title in the WMC series.
21st Birthday is definitely Boxer and the team back to their best. I loved every page. Authentic JP style with a gritty story that pulled on the heart strings and kept you guessing. Top job!!
