CROSS ROADS
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.

This time, everything is in the balance -- their lives, their friendship, and the freedom they fought so hard to gain...

Only the Sisterhood, with their special blend of guts, imagination, and friends in all places are capable of pulling off the impossible -- of hunting down this monster and taking him out once and for all....
