Plot: (Warning, may contain spoilers):
"10th Anniversary" by James Patterson (co-authored with Maxine Paetro) is the tenth book in the Women's Murder Club series. The story revolves around three main plotlines involving members of the club:

• Detective Lindsay Boxer finds her long-awaited wedding celebrations cut short when she's called to a harrowing case: a severely injured teenage girl is found, but her newborn baby is missing. Lindsay becomes deeply invested in finding the infant, navigating a victim who may be withholding crucial information.

• Assistant District Attorney Yuki Castellano is prosecuting a high-stakes murder trial – a woman accused of killing her husband in front of their children. Yuki's career hinges on a guilty verdict, but as Lindsay gets involved, evidence emerges that could challenge Yuki's conviction, forcing her to choose between trusting her best friend and following her instincts.

• Reporter Cindy Thomas is investigating a disturbing series of attacks where women are drugged and assaulted, waking up with no memory of the events. Her pursuit of the story puts her in a dangerous situation.

The book explores these three distinct cases, along with the personal lives and evolving relationships of the Women's Murder Club members, including Lindsay's new marriage and the pressures of her job.

Comments:
It has been so long since I read this book that at the time of compiling this website, I don't remember enough about the individual book to give it justice.
