General Fiction (Adult)
Description
In a thrilling new story of female empowerment, adventure,
and vigilante justice from the legendary bestseller Fern Michaels, The
Sisterhood reunites to avenge an attack against one of their own…
The
Sisterhood: a group of women from all walks of life bound by friendship
and years of adventure. Armed with vast resources, top-notch expertise,
and a loyal network of allies around the globe, the Sisterhood will not
rest until every wrong is made right.
The women of the
Sisterhood have developed a motto: “Whatever it takes.” Regardless of
how dangerous an adversary may be, or how overwhelming the odds against
them seem, the group’s devotion to each other and to their cause has
helped them achieve the seemingly impossible.
But there’s a
price to pay for success. In the course of both their official careers
and their top-secret missions, the Sisterhood—and their menfolk—have
acquired enemies. Myra has been feeling uneasy of late, and her fears
are justified when her adopted daughter, Nikki, is seriously injured.
With Nikki in a coma, and Nikki’s partner, Jack, convinced that the
organization’s online security has been breached, the women of the
Sisterhood are more vulnerable than they’ve ever been.
On their
trail is a vicious felon with scores to settle and a network of
accomplices willing to do his bidding, for a price. He’s set his sights
on vengeance, and the attack on Nikki is just the beginning. Though
frantic with worry about her daughter, Myra and her beloved Charles know
it’s me to summon the others and figure out how to take the fight to the
enemy’s door. Because no one targets one of their own and gets away with
it
4 STARS
I found this book a bit hard to get into and I am quite the fan of most of the Sisterhood series. I did find the beginning to be a bit confusing. With all of the villains and the story going back and forth between them and the victim.
Maggie did make me smile with her always hungry, endlessly empty stomach. And I did enjoy Libby who was introduced into the story on the side of The Sisterhood. Maybe she will be included in some future stories.
It took a while for the story to get more interesting to me but when it took off, I enjoyed it more. So although I liked this story, it wasn't quite a favorite for me. Although I do have to give the author points for coming at this story from a different angle than usual.
The ending was good in the justice type sense that The Sisterhood gals dishes out. I did like that they handed out punishments after interrogating the men and clueless Leroy didn't get the worst of the punishments. They looked at the people, case by case. I do have to say the man that deserved the harshest punishment, got it. That last one might make you cringe a bit.
" I voluntarily read an advanced reader copy of this book, and this is my honest opinion about it.
