Product Description
The loyal friends who make up the Sisterhood have gathered at Myra Rutledges beautiful Virginia home for the first time in a year, eager to talk, laugh, and share their joys and heartaches. For one of their number, its an evening filled with anticipation. Because tonight, over delicious food and in the company of those she trusts most, it will finally be time to tell her story - and for the Sisterhood to help plan her revenge.
Yoko Akias mother was only fifteen when a wealthy man swept her off her feet with promises of love. Instead, he filled her brief life with horror and misery. The Sisterhood has helped each other exact vengeance on rotten men before, but this time its different. Their target is none other than Americas favorite movie star - a brute who has conned the world into believing hes Mister Perfect. But hes about to learn that nobody - not even a powerful superstar - is above the Sisterhoods special brand of payback...

 The Gold Shields fail! April 11, 2007
11 out of 12 found this review helpful
I LOVED this series, but was disappointed with this LAST installment.
In this one, the Sisterhood was reduced to being as inept as the Keystone Kops from the earliest Black and White movies.
How things could have gone AS badly as they did with Charles' contacts AND the Gold Shields on the job leaves me speechless!
In LETHAL JUSTICE Charles ships those two pesky reporters, both scared spitless, to NY and warns them that they best stay out of D.C; that their activities WOULD be monitored and their containment ENFORCED...yet in FREE FALL they are back without controls, to create the kind of antics that made the Keystone Kops the buffoons of the Movie's infancy.
Charles, who is personal friends with the Queen of England, and can activate the type of protections of the U.S. SECRET...SUPER Secret Gold Shields, SHOULD have been able to keep these two nuisance-mongers under better control.
As if that isn't bad enough, you have Myra and her new recruit, her friend Anna HIJACKING a taxicab and its driver?
This is the same Myra who could afford the purchase of Anna's Estate in Spain, but couldn't see to it that an appropriate vehicle is waiting for them in California?
It saddens me that the Sisters are now ESCAPED Criminals because the safeguards against Ted and Maggie fell far short of what were promised in LETHAL JUSTICE.
I LOVED the series, and I will purchase the next in this line...hopefully Charles and Myra will be back on their game as they had been up till FREE FALL...but FREE FALL leaves me mourning for the creative justice the Sisterhood had shown consistently throughout the first six titles.
Please Ms. Michaels, bring back the crisp justice of the Sisterhood.
 Sisterhood 's the Thing January 10, 2007

Fern Michaels describes the importance of sisterhood for many women who have no one else. Her characters sing of the need for other women to share their problems, successes, and daily lives. No matter the difficulty, the women work together for a united end helped by Charles and Myra, sweethearts to each other and for the women.
I thoroughly enjoy Fern Michaels created qusi-family in the Sisterhood series.
Justice for Yoko February 15, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
If you follow the Sisterhood you will know that Yoko is finally getting her chance at revenge for her father. What the group did not know is who are father is and how well known he is.
The book is great and I think Yoko faces many hard obstacles in getting the revengs she waited so long for. This time it is not easy and Myra and her new friend/member Annie are getting involved more then they should and they are even told to stop the mission but we all know the sisters are our for revenge and will stop at nothing short.
Ms. Michaels is fantastic with the ideas she comes up with for revenge and dont think any of you will be disappointed with how she seeks it. I loved it and was almost not sure the mission would be accomplished.
Please don't tell us the series is ending..................it was great.
Amazing! March 9, 2007
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Of course the moment I saw this book was out I NEEDED it. It definately turns out very different than I expected, and I had tears when it was over, for it is the last mission in the series. These women have all come to be part of a great dream, and I have enjoyed being able to read this vigilante series. So often people get the short end of the stick in life and somehow they need to get justice. Absolutely amazing at the thought process, and details that this series goes to, and I am saddened to see it all end.......
I also want to know if Nicki and Jack ever get married?? lol
Don't Get Mad; Get Even April 10, 2007
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is the last in a really neat series about a sisterhood of women who assist each other in exacting retribution when the system has let them down. They have the resources and the will to exact vengeance on the perpetrators of acts that are virtually universally considered as needing to be punished, such as diplomatic immunity, spousal abuse, framing someone innocent and stealing their business, health insurance fraud, and the like. It is a lot of fun to see how the sisters help each other to exact justice. It is also very interesting to see how they figure out what "justice" should be, and how they feel about exacting it. The exploration of the concept of "justice" adds considerable depth to the series.
