The members of the Women's Murder Club are again involved
in solving an unusual case of murder. This time it directly
involves their newest member, lawyer Yuki Castellano.
While shopping with Yuki and Lt. Lindsay Boxer, Yuki's
mother, Keiko, collapses. After being rushed to San
Francisco Medical Center emergency room, Keiko is doing
fine following treatment and is preparing to go home. Then
Yuki receives devastating news that her mother has died
after being given the wrong medication.
Not willing to let the matter rest, Yuki asks her friends,
Lindsay, Claire and Cindy, to help her investigate. What
they find is that this series of events -- healthy patients
about to be released then mysteriously dying -- has happened
quite a few times in the past at this medical center. In
fact, the center is involved in a highly publicized
multiple lawsuit case currently being tried at the local
courthouse.
Their investigation turns up some pretty gruesome facts and
some very shady characters. Will the Women's Murder Club be
able to figure out what's going on and who's playing God
before more lives are lost?
