As the fifth installment in the bestselling thriller series the Women's Murder Club opens, Lieutenant Lindsay Boxer and the Club's new member, Yuki Castellano, watch in horror as Yuki's mother Keiko crumples to the pavement on their way to lunch. Meanwhile, a San Francisco hospital worker calling himself Night Walker, obsessed with witnessing people's deaths, quietly murders a series of patients expected to recover. Since no one can determine the victims' cause of death, it seems at first like a terrifying chain of coincidences. The Women's Murder Club investigates, stymied by the hospital's desperation to keep the matter quiet, and spurred on by their fear that Keiko could be next to fall prey to the mysterious "epidemic." Healthy patients are dying of unknown causes in a San Francisco hospital and the Women's Murder Club decides to investigate the hospital's personnel. They discover a hospital administrator determined to shield the hospitals reputation.

Publisher's Note
The Women's Murder Club faces an unspeakable horror in an irresistible hospital and courtroom thriller by #1 bestselling author James Patterson.
SOMEBODY DIES.
A young mother is recuperating in a San Francisco hospital when she is suddenly gasping for breath. The call button fails to bring help in time. The hospital's doctors, some of the best in the nation, are completely mystified by her death. How did this happen?
APOCALYPSE NEARS.
This is not the first such case at the hospital. Just as patients are about to be released with a clean bill of health, their conditions take a devastating turn for the worse.
Accompanied by the newest member of the Women's Murder Club, Yuki Castellano, Lieutenant Lindsay Boxer probes deeper into the incidents. Could these cases just be appalling coincidences? Or is a maniac playing God with people's lives? When someone close to the Women's Murder Club begins to exhibit the same frightening symptoms, Lindsay fears no one is safe.
THE 5TH HORSEMAN RIDES.
It is a wild race against time as Lindsay's investigation reveals a hospital administration determined to shield its reputation at all costs. And while the hospital wages an explosive court battle that grips the entire nation, Lindsay and the Women's Murder Club hunt for a merciless killer among its esteemed medical staff.
The newest addition to the top-selling new mystery series takes the Women's Murder Club to the most terrifying heights of suspense they have yet to encounter. THE 5TH HORSEMAN proves once again that James Patterson is "the page-turningest author in the game right now" (San Francisco Chronicle).
