Myra's daughter, Barbara, is killed by a hit and run driver who happens to be a diplomat and therefore cannot be charged or prosecuted for her murder (in Weekend Warriors). This is a huge reason why Myra decides to start the Sisterhood. Anyway, starting in Weekend Warriors and continuing in Payback, Barbara remains a character in the form of a ghost.
