Description
It's been a year and a half since the women of the Sisterhood received their presidential pardons, but the freedom they craved has come at a high price. The impossibly lucrative positions handed out to them by the mysterious Global Securities company have turned out to be golden handcuffs -- scattering them around the world, cutting off communication, and leaving them in miserable isolation. But a happy homecoming at the old Virginia farmhouse is marred by the hijacking of Nikki and Kathryn's private jet. It seems their few fellow passengers are not ordinary travelers -- they're an elite group of Interpol agents who urgently need the Sisterhood's help. Now the ladies face a stark choice: resume their vigilante status for one of their most hazardous assignments yet, or try to outwit a group of powerful adversaries willing to use truly desperate measures. This time, everything is in the balance -- their lives, their friendship, and the freedom they fought so hard to gain....--Book jacket.

Booklist Review
The intrepid vigilantes of the Sisterhood have been pardoned by the president and, by design, scattered to the wind. Myra, for example, has been marooned on a farm with her husband, Charles, for the past year and a half. Journalist Annie, bored by her stint as Fish's co-owner of the Babylon Casino, has just, on a whim, given a group of senior players a 1.8-million-dollar jackpot. Although they're isolated from one another, Michaels' beloved spunky females put a quick end to their banishment and gather forces when Nikki and Kathryn's private jet gets hijacked, and the enigmatic Hank Jellicoe goes missing. This is the eighteenth book in Michaels' popular series (Weekend Warriors, 2003; Payback, 2005; Vendetta, 2005; et seq.). Suspense, conspiracy, intrigue, and Michaels' unique brand of humor will keep her many fans happy.--Mosley, Shelley Copyright 2010 Booklist
