Our view
Patterson and Paetro’s “The 6th Target” is a fast sixth Women’s Murder Club novel that juggles several cases around Lindsay Boxer. Some readers enjoy the parallel plots and the courtroom scenes; others find the storylines half-formed, the ending loose and the friends at the heart of the series less close than before. It is aimed at readers already attached to Lindsay and her circle.
