Life isn't fair. Most women know it. But what can you do about it? Plenty...if you're part of the Sisterhood. On the surface, these seven women are as different as can be - but each has had her share of bad luck, from cheating husbands to sexist colleagues to a legal system that often doesn't do its job. Now, drawn together by tragedy, they're forging a bond that will help them right the wrongs committed against them and discover an inner strength they didn't know they had. Growing bolder with each act of justice, the Sisterhood is learning that when bad things happen, you can roll over and play dead...or you can get up fighting...

In the tradition of The First Wives' Club, WEEKEND WARRIORS is a slam-bang, take-no-prisoners tale of survival, sweet revenge, and the healing power of friendship.

"Readers who grow weary of seeing the bad guys get away with their crimes will enjoy seeing what happens when well-funded, very angry women take the law into their own hands." - Booklist

Seven women wronged by the justice system join together to seek vengeance. It might seem that so many women sharing the secrets of their newly formed vigilante sisterhood would be a recipe for disaster, but their bond of friendship grows deeper as the plot thickens. Laural Merlington's interpretation of Michaels's characters will assist each listener in identifying with at least one of the women, and, although each character's story and identity are distinctly different from those of any other, Merlington weaves the parts in such a way that listeners will find the plot easy to follow. One hopes this introduction to the sisterhood is the first of a future series--with Merlington as narrator. S.K.P. (c) AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine
