Darby Kane, the author of the critically acclaimed and #1 International Bestseller Pretty Little Wife, has crafted another gripping and twisty suspense about an invitation to an exclusive club that comes with deadly consequences.

They meet the second Tuesday of every month and vote...and then someone dies.

Over the last few years, prominent peopleā??a retired diplomat, beloved basketball coach, the CEO of an empireā??have died in a series of fluke accidents and shocking suicides. There's no apparent connection, no signs of foul play. Behind it all is a powerful group of women, the Sophie Foundation, who meet over wine and cheese to review files of men who behave very, very badly, and then mete out justice.

Jessa Hall jumped at the mysterious, exclusive invitation to this secret club. The invite comes when she's at her lowest, aching for a way to take back control. After years of fighting and scratching to get ahead, she's ready for a chance to make the "bad guys" lose. Jessa soon realizes, though, just how far she's willing to go and how dangerous this game has become.

Once in the group, it's impossible to get out. She has nowhere to turn except former friend Gabby Fielding who is investigating the mysterious death of her ex-husband. Aligned in their goal to take down the Foundation, Gabby and Jessa need each other but working together doesn't mean they trust each other...or that either will survive to tell the truth… (more)

4.5 stars rounding up!
Darby Kane is one of my favorite authors, because she knows how to write a suspenseful thriller.
Look out because underneath some of the most influential people to uphold the law, has also decided that the law wasnā€™t always the appropriate punishment for some high powered men. A female vigilante group like no other is holding their own court, without anyone knowing.

Spoken from multiple povs, making the suspense build throughout the book. I wasnā€™t able to put it down and was blindsided by the final twist in this showdown.

It's a slow build with a slow finish. Love the premise of the book though, and I would read another Darby Kane book. ( )
