The 19th Christmas (The Women's Murder Club #19) by James Patterson-Used Paula McLain socially awkward and overly fondAs the holidays approach, Detective Lindsay Boxer and her friends in the Women's Murder Club have much to celebrate. Crime is down. The medical examiner's office is quiet. Even the courts are showing some Christmas spirit.

Then a fearsome criminal known only as "Loman" seizes control of the headlines.
