Summary
Dr. Jo Beckett, a forensic psychiatrist, has been recruited to perform a psychological autopsy on the suspected suicide of city prosecutor Callie Harding. Jo learns that Harding, who drove her BMW off a San Francisco bridge, was a member of a shadowy group called The Dirty Secrets Club. Her accident was the latest in a string of high profile murder-suicides. As Jo and the police uncover club information from Callie's iPod, they are led on a chase to find the names of more members. Still coming to terms with her doctor husband's recent death, Jo struggles to pinpoint the club's origins, realizing that a former member may be systematically driving the remaining members to their deaths. Can he also figure out Jo's own `dirty secret,` or will she figure out his first?

Critique
First in a planned series featuring Dr. Jo Beckett.
Fast-paced and intricately plotted.
Highly recommend.
