Nikki Quinn is devastated when her best friend Barbara is knocked down and killed by a hit-and-run driver who claims diplomatic immunity. But Nikki has her work and her lover, fellow lawyer Jack Nolan, to keep her going, whereas Barbara's mother, Myra, has nothing. Festering in a sea of recriminations and hatred, unable to gain a sense of perspective, Myra is lost . . . until one day she switches on the evening news and sees Marie Lewellen, mother of a murder victim, take matters into her own hands and stab her daughter's killer. An idea is born, and within months Myra and Nikki have drawn together a group of women who have one thing in common: they have been failed by the American justice system, they're down but they're not out, and they're ready to find their nemeses and make them pay. First up is Kathryn, a long-distance truck driver who was raped at a road stop by three motorcyclists as her paralysed husband watched, helpless. Banding together, the Sisterhood plot the ultimate revenge -- but with dissension from inside the group and out, there's no saying if the plan will work until the moment of truth arrives.
This book was an awesome beginning for her series. I had read books 2, 3, and 4 before I got book 1. It sets the stages for the rest of the books. A wonderful read.

Fern Michaels puts into words, what I think, a lot of women feel everyday. "Weekend Warriors" is a great book to feed your imagination on how to deal with injustice in a woman's world.

This book kept me up late for two nights. I did not want to put it down. I enjoyed the story, I sympathized as well as empathized with the characters and I wanted in on the action! Ms. Michaels really out did herself with this one and I was left wondering if she was writing from personal experience. I can't wait to get to the rest of the series!
