Weekend Warriors (Sisterhood Series #1)
Search in google:
A group of extraordinary women who are out to see justice done . . . a step at a time Nikki is devastated when her friend Barbara is killed by a hit-and-run driver who claims diplomatic immunity. Barbara's mother, Myra, is lost too . . . until one day an idea is born. Myra and Nikki draw together a group of women who have all been failed by the American justice system, and now they're ready to find their nemeses and make them pay.Publishers WeeklyReaders beware: this book is not for the faint of heart or for fans of Michaels's more traditional romances (Kentucky Rich, etc.). There is no happily ever after here; indeed, the primary emotion fueling this story is not love, but anger. Anger leads wealthy Myra Rutledge, who lost her daughter to a hit-and-run driver with diplomatic immunity, to found the Sisterhood, a secret vigilante group of women who have been unable to seek justice through lawful means. Assisting Myra in this effort are former MI6 agent Charles Martin and defense attorney Nikki Quinn, who was Myra's daughter's best friend. High on estrogen and hate, the women pinpoint their first target-the Weekend Warriors, a group of motorcycle enthusiasts who brutally raped Kathryn Lucas, one of Nikki's former clients. The women decide on a Lorena Bobbitt-style punishment and carry it out with very few misgivings-so few that readers will have trouble seeing them as sympathetic. With its paper-thin premise and lack of a rational or moral grounding, this overwrought story isn't likely to satisfy or inspire. (July) Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.
