Suspense | Romance

Fern Michaels continues her best-selling Revenge of the Sisterhood series with another highly innovative and entertaining tale of female vigilantes. It is Yoko Akia's turn for justice, and the secret she has been keeping all of her life about her natural father is vile enough to make everyone in the Sisterhood blanch, including ex-MI 16 agent, Charles. Yoko's mother was sold to Michael Lyons when she was fifteen-years-old. She was his sex-slave, and when she became pregnant, Lyons passed her around to all of his degenerate friends until she died a disease ridden, painful death. Yoko was rescued by some women who had been freed from Lyons clutches, and these "aunts" raised her to become a beautiful, caring, woman. Yoko was told the bitter truth about her heritage, and she vowed that someday she would make Michael Lyons pay for what he did to her mother and other women and children. This pernicious man lives a double life -- he is the golden-haired man of Hollywood, and the owner of several sex shops that cater to very wealthy men with an appetite for very young females. Reporters Ted Robinson and Maggie Spritzer have returned to Washington and are still obsessed with exposing the Sisterhood. They take matters into their own hands when their accusations are ignored by every branch of the government they talk to. The sting in FREE FALL is complex and imaginative, and thoroughly entertaining. Yoko is the last of the seven original women who had slipped through the cracks of justice. She has found a man worthy of her and her love, and she has the support of her sisters. Fern Michaels does an excellent job of weaving several plots throughout this book. FREE FALL is a fast moving, fast reading story with lots of surprises from start to finish. As a devout fan of this series I truly hope this is not the last tale of the Week-End Warriors!

SUMMARY

The loyal friends who make up the Sisterhood have gathered at Myra Rutledge’s beautiful Virginia home for the first time in a year, eager to talk, laugh, and share their joys and heartaches. For one of their number, it’s an evening filled with anticipation. Because tonight, over delicious food and in the company of those she trusts most, it will finally be time to tell her story—and for the Sisterhood to help plan her revenge. Yoko Akia’s mother was only fifteen when a wealthy man swept her off her feet with promises of love. Instead, he filled her brief life with horror and misery. The Sisterhood has helped each other exact vengeance on rotten men before, but this time it’s different. Their target is none other than America’s favorite movie star—a brute who has conned the world into believing he’s Mister Perfect. But he’s about to learn that nobody—not even a powerful superstar—is above the Sisterhood’s special brand of payback...
