The 9th Judgment

Detective Lindsay Boxer and the Women's Murder Club investigate the shooting of a young mother and her infant in a San Francisco shopping-center garage, where the only clue is a message written in lipstick. At the same time, a burglary at the home of actor Marcus Dowling leaves his wife dead and a valuable jewel collection missing. As the cases unfold, the team confronts connected crimes that put the city on edge.
