You don't mess with the sisters or their friends! And that's exactly what Malcom Fielder and Donald Walsh did and when Izzie found out the details she brought in the girls and they took care of business. Read to find out what special punishment Annie has come up with.

I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I have enjoyed these Sisterhood books and this was a great addition. The Sisterhood is back to right wrongs and there were many characters. The story moved along at a fast pace and I savored it.
Many thanks to Kensington and to Netgalley for providing me with a galley in exchange for my honest opinion.

This was my first book in the Sisterhood series. A group of friends and colleagues who have developed a network to arrange justice.
This is a strong story that can be read as a stand alone.
When Zoe visits Izzy an old college friend she finds herself telling her story of being concerned about her job change at a large construction corporation.
She finds Izzy has many influential friends who will help her uncover the truth.
A very quick entertaining read that you will throughly enjoy.
Thank you NetGalley and (publisher) for sending this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own.

This was the first book in the Sisterhood series that I have read. When Izzy Flanders asks her friend Zoe about helping with a project that she is helping to build, she wonders why Zoe is so distracted. When Zoe finally confides in Izzy about her suspicions, Izzy gets the Sisterhood together to help find and reveal the truth.

A great storyline with great characters. I will be reading more books from the Sisterhood series!

The Sisterhood is back at it again and I couldn’t be happier! These women have come back together to help yet another woman who had been wronged and is in trouble, and they do it as only they can.

This group of women truly believes and understands that you support and respect each other, you build other women up and help them when they’re in need, then you carry it forward. This time it’s one of Izzie’s old friends in trouble, and it involves international intrigue and adventure, so buckle up, because you never know what’s going to happen before someone hits Rock Bottom.

The Sisterhood is back at it again. The women come together to stop a wrong and get justice for those who are in need. Izzy's friend, Zoe, comes to them with concerns about the company she works for. They have her back and right the wrong. This was an easy and enjoyable read. Thank you NetGalley for the ARC.

From start to finish this book was very fast paced but well explained which made it easy to keep up with. I had no idea this was a series because it reads so well as a stand alone. Now I will go back and start from the beginning of the series.

I am pretty sure Ive read most if not all of this series and loved enjoyed them all. Smart women taking charge and getting even. Who wouldn’t love that? When the team is working on a construction project and they connect with a friend to process the building supplies needed. Zoe seems so very different than her normal self confident self and they know something is wrong. Zoe knows something fishy is going on at her company and is scared. Too many of the products they’ve supplied are turning out to be faulty and costing so many lives. She’s started snooping and now is afraid for her own. Together, the wonderful team craft a plan that takes care of all who have been involved in the gets even with all involved in the wrong doing in the best and at times really fabulously creative smart ways. A fun easy read. Upgraded to 4 stars from what would have been 3.5 if half stars available.

This is a Mystery Suspense, and this is the 35th book in the Sisterhood series. I have read some of the other books in the Sisterhood series before picking up this book, and I do think you can read this book as a standalone without any problems. I really enjoyed the characters in this book. I found this book to be a fun fast paced read with suspense and mystery. I really enjoyed reading this book. I received an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.

The Sisterhood is called to action again when Zoe, a friend of Izzy's, discovers that the company she works for may be producing inferior foundation materials. After she asks questions, she gets moved to a new "position" and then she starts to feel that she is being followed.

Once Izzy finds out what is happening, she introduces Zoe to some of the members of the Sisterhood. It's been a while since I've read a book in this series, and it was amazing how quickly I remembered the characters. I love how they plot their "revenge" against the perpetrators and the fact that they look out for innocent people who are on the periphery who might suffer.

Thank you to NetGalley, Kensington Books and the author for the opportunity to read this book for my honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.

The Sisters are back with a new mission involving Izzie's old friend from college.

When Izzie contacts an old friend, Zoe, for help on a new project that Yoko is designing with her, Izzie notices that Zoe has something else going on. Zoe works as an engineer and stumbled upon some shady dealings in the company and she feels that her life is in danger.

Izzie immediately calls Myra and Annie and they introduce Zoe to the Sisterhood. Zoe agrees to help the women take down her boss and his shady company of selling cheap supplies to build buildings and bridges. Endangering others while collecting payments.

A must read!!

Fern Michaels continues her SISTERHOOD series with ROCK BOTTOM. When one of the team's members runs into some underhanded construction projects, she will join with those women who have formed a guardian team to help those who cannot protect themselves.

The Sisterhood has done it again. Zoe suspects her company is responsible for inferior building materials resulting in the deadly collapse of multiple buildings around the world, but no one is connecting the dots. People have been injured or died. She mentions this to her friend Izzy who sets the Sisterhood on the trail to track down the responsible person(s) and make sure justice is served as only The Sisterhood can.

The Sisterhood is a group of people who have come together to right wrongs when the legal or justice system fails. This is book #35 in the series and I’ve only read the previous one, Tick Tock (Aug 2022). There are a lot of characters and names to keep track but some background is given to understand the connections between members of the Sisterhood. This adventure introduces Zoe Danfield, a VP of a large construction corporation. When structures are collapsing that her company has built, Zoe suspects problems within her company and turns to best friend Izzie. She in turn introduces Zoe to the Sisterhood. The Sisterhood has connections with authorities, government agencies and common people who owe them their allegiance. And they have almost unlimited resources to bring about their own brand of justice.

The story flows at a fast pace and over a short period of time. There is some repetition as Zoe’s is introduced to members and her situation is explained again and again. But once the ball is rolling, it is a fun ride with lots of players in motion. People who will love this most are ones who have read more of the series and want updates on the characters and understand their connections. I’ve enjoyed the two I’ve read but it hasn’t inspired me to go back and read the rest of the series. Thank you to Kensington Books and Zebra for the ARC via NetGalley and I am leaving a voluntary review. (3.5 Stars)

DNF

First off, I didn't realize this was number 35 in a series because NetGalley and publishers don't like to disclose that. It would have been nice to know before I requested this title.
Second, I tried. I see the potential for this to work as a standalone. We get some character backstories, the prologue is dedicated to describing how the Sisterhood came about, but I am just so confused not knowing what Izzy and Yoko are working on building in the first few chapters. It makes it hard to really get into the book. We get some context clues that it's a shop of some kind but like.... what kind of shop is it???
I'm also finding the dialogue to be a tad awkward. It doesn't flow how actual people would speak. Also some of the stuff happening seems very outlandish and just ridiculous. Any other employee would just leave a huge issue like quality control alone especially if it isn't their department, but Zoe wants to be regarded as some hero I guess. So here she goes printing out invoices and trying to figure out what's going on??? Girl, it isn't your job. Just quit and go to another firm. That's more realistic than trying to conduct your own research. Sorry to be so harsh, but this is just not the book for me.

Isabelle “Izzy” Flanders and Yoko Akia need materials for their new project. Izzy contacts Zoe Danfield an old friend in the business. Zoe is coming to visit and Izzy feels Zoe is hiding something.
Zoe has been moved to a lower position in her company after asking questions on quality of work. Zoe was almost pushed off the the subway platform recently. Seems when the sisterhood dig into Zoe's company, they are seeing red flags.
Another great read from the sisterhood doing a good job of taking care of business.

The adventures continue!

The women and men of the Sisterhood are up to their usual business of righting wrongs and making sure the bad guys pay for their crimes. In this case, a friend of Izzie's suspects that her company is producing inferior concrete products that could easily cause buildings and other structures to fail. Zoe mentions her concern to Izzie, and before you know it, the Sisterhood starts the investigation.

As with the other books in the series, the plans manage to come together, no matter how far-fetched they seem. This team of mostly women pull off the most outrageous acts of deceit, all in the name of justice, and somehow, it all works out in the end.

Thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book, but my opinions are my own.

A good foundation is laid making it like a revisit to old friends or a way for new readers to clue in. Whatever it is that you need. There will be quite a few people in the story to get to know for new readers.
Something that was something that slowed the story down for me was the repetition when it came to Zoe was being introduced to a couple of the group at a time. Each time what her problem was gone over. Repeated until they finally were all together in the War Room. Not everyone was available but enough were.
Things do pick up as we get an inside look at two people who were behind all the evil. Not to worry though we also get to know several people who are innocent bystanders and they do come out smelling like a rose. I liked that. And Zoe is definitely one of the innocent bystanders. She was an interesting, unique person. The Sisterhood really gets things moving when they get involved. It's a good thing they have a large team because they have a lot of plates spinning in the air. But it was fascinating seeing them pull it all together. And the punishment that the team pulls off, benefits many other people when it came to people getting their spoils. But the punishment the two get personally will definitely NOT benefit THEN one little bit.
Just a bit of fun. I had to look up what a pork-pie hat was though because I had no clue as an American what that was.

A bit of a departure for other books I have read by Fern Michael's but I enjoyed reading. Wouldn't mind reading another Sister's adveture.
