The women of the Sisterhood are fun, smart, sassy, and determined to get their way every time. But most of all, they are the best friends a woman wants by her side in good times and bad.

Now, she has her freedom, but she's left with haunting memories of being hauled from her office in handcuffs...of the cell door clanging shut behind her...of her pleas going unheard. Meanwhile, the real criminals - her former employers, Roland Sullivan and his lover Arden Gillespie - continue to make millions by conning the innocent, especially preying on the elderly and taking their life savings. Alexis dreams of getting even. The legal system failed her, but the Sisterhood won't. They have a delicious plan that can give Sullivan and Gillespie a taste of their own bitter medicine...

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Myra Rutledge and the fun-loving members of her vigilante group, which operates out of Myra's estate near Washington, D.C., deliver more creative punishment to miscreants who escape the traditional legal system in the sixth entry in bestseller Michael's lighthearted Sisterhood series (Sweet Revenge, etc.). When stock broker Alexis Thorn spends a year in prison for defrauding elderly investors, a crime actually committed by her greedy bosses, the Sisterhood plots revenge with the assistance of Myra's childhood pal, heiress Anna Ryland de Silva, and DA Jack Emery, Myra's lawyer daughter Nikki's boyfriend. Reporters Maggie Spritzer and Ted Robinson don't make their job any easier after the pair break into Nikki's office and uncover evidence that could embarrass the Sisterhood. Readers looking for an updated Charlie's Angels in "wild women" mode will be most satisfied. (Oct.)

From Booklist

In the sixth installment of Michaels' Revenge of the Sisterhood series, our group of vigilante ladies is finally giving Alexis her turn at justice. Each of the women have been let down by the criminal justice system, so they seek to balance the scales for each other. Alexis worked at a brokerage firm whose partners framed her for the theft of money from her accounts. Found guilty, she was sent to prison for a year. Now it's time for a little payback. The sisterhood's scheme is relatively simple, but there's an extra fillip at the end that puts its vengeance over the top. Add to that a pair of reporters who have almost figured out who they are, and the ladies are in real danger of being exposed. Fans of the series will relish the latest episode because it's as full of daring and rough justice as all the rest. Maria Hatton

5.0 out of 5 stars Getting Caught, August 29, 2006

This review is from: Lethal Justice (Revenge of the Sisterhood) (Hardcover)

If you are following Ms. Michaels Sisterhoold series I think you will truly enjoy this one.

As always the memebers of the sisterhood are at risks but this time they are so afraid of getting caught that Myra convices Charles to visit an old friend of hers and see if they might be able to use her residence as a safe haven.

Alexis was a successful broker who was framed and imprisoned for being set up by Arden Gillespie and Roland Sullivan. Thanks to Ms. Gillespies cunning ways she gets Roland to go along with her although he is not comfortable with the plan but is intrigued and infatuated witih Arden.

The results are fantastic and they are dosed with touches of humor which only Ms. Michaels can provide. Since I dont want to give it away lets just say Ms. Gillespie will never look the same again once the sisterhood are done with her.

I highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Poetic Justice..., March 27, 2008

This review is from: Lethal Justice: Sisterhood Series #6 (Sisterhood Novels) (Paperback)

If you are reading the Sisterhood series and have made it to this book, let's face it, you are a fan. This book will not disappoint. The series is entertaining and touches that part of our psyche that likes to see the good guys (or women in this case) triumph. The women of the Sisterhood have been wronged by the justice system. They are not entirely wrapped up in their own problems though, their experiences have made them even more sensitive to the plight of others. With Myra's billions and Charles's expertise and resources, there is seemingly nothing these women can't accomplish. Relax and enjoy the world of the Sisterhood.

This review is from: Lethal Justice: Sisterhood Series #6 (Sisterhood Novels) (Paperback)

Not much different than the others in the series. Fern needs to hire another publisher as there were 5 spelling errors in this book (pages 79,85,90,112,and 151). Discouraging to find a published work with so many errors.
