The 11th Hour by James Patterson

Since this is the 11th book in this series and I have read all but one (apparently I missed the 10th one even though we own it), it is easy to deduce that I enjoy reading this series.
Lindsey Boxer is pregnant which is part of the cover tease, but really has nothing to do with the book.  There are two high-priority cases going on at the same time.  The first is a string of drug dealer murders.  Someone the press has dubbed "Revenge" is taking out drug dealers on the street.  The second case involves two heads on a stick and 6 more found buried in the ground of an estate belonging to an old movie star who was accused of killing his wife 10 years prior.
The Woman's Murder Club books are always a fun read.  This book is no different. It kept me on the edge of my seat trying to piece together the clues and how they would shake out.  I was not a fan of the infidelity piece of the book.  I felt it detracted from the story instead of enhancing it.  All in all I liked the book.  Three stars doesn't seem to be enough, but 4 seems to be too high (I really liked it), so let's split the difference and go 3.5.
