Description

Fifteen years ago, the Rookie Club began as a tight-knit band of female cops struggling for respect. Jamie Vail was one of them. So was Natasha Devlin, the woman Jamie caught in bed with her husband. When Natasha Devlin turns up dead, Jamie can't bring herself to care. She's got enough on her plate, hunting a sexual predator who preys on female officers. He leaves them alive, but brutalized. But when the MO of the Devlin murder matches the MO of the perp in Jamie's case, she's brought in on show more the homicide investigation and back into the Rookie Club she has been avoiding since her husband's affair. As more cops become victims, Jamie must confront her past and solve the murder of her ex-husband's lover before she becomes the killer's ultimate prize. show less

The Rookie Club is a well written, well researched, very fast-paced novel. It was my first experience with author Danielle Girard. I find her writing style to be similar to Lisa Gardner, who is one of my favorite authors. There are some pretty violent acts towards women in the book, so readers who is a little more sensitive, beware.
I enjoyed this book. I felt like I needed a score card to keep the huge cast of characters straight. Plus there are loose ends not taken care of, like the murder/suicide talked about a lot through out the book.
