BOOK BLURB: “26 Beauties: A Women’s Murder Club Thriller” by James Patterson, released May 2026.
From the world’s #1 bestselling author, the Women’s Murder Club goes searching for 26 Beauties – young women missing in San Francisco.
SFPD’s Sergeant Lindsay Boxer’s best friend, Claire Washburn, is named medical examiner of the year. But an uninvited guest crashes the Women’s Murder Club’s party: a concerned father seeking investigative reporter Cindy Thomas’s help in locating his missing daughter. And she’s not the only one. Lindsay’s been investigating the deaths of a Jane Doe washed up on a nearby beach, and a young woman found in Golden Gate Park. What if all these cases are connected?
The answers lie with the 26 Beauties on the run and in the wind.
