Customer Review: It's like all his "books" - 40% white space, half-page chapter starters every other page. Look at how many books the guy's been cranking out. Instead of a decent BOOK as in years past it is now a matter of meeting the sheer number of books and grabbing up money as much as possible for sales. I'll... more info
Customer Review: Terrific book. Amazon the only place I found it. Have now read all
6 of the series. Waiting for the next one. Very disappointed that
the TV series based on these books was cancelled.
Customer Review: Yes, this is a crime novel and the principal murder is shattering but it's also just one ingredient in a tragic stew of cops, thugs, and other walking wounded. The chief investigators find themselves hopelessly entangled in the lives of the victimized. A theme this author likes to explore. Price... more info
Customer Review: I quote, from page 118: "Nearby, the forensic pathologist-thin as an ageing spinster's marital hopes-was downing a large tomato juice over a stainless sink."

The middle... more info

The most disappointing was the ending which seemed like the author had something else to do and just threw in a conclusion. You have to keep your... more info
Customer Review: Started out so flat that I almost stopped reading and then at page 116, chapter 30, Alex was invited to the white house and the book became a real novel. This was when the Jack & Jill investigation was first introduced. Switching back and forth between the child killings and Jack & Jill... more info
Customer Review: this book was a great bargain considering it just came out for a much higher price in the chain stores. it arrived on time and in excellent condition.
Customer Review: This was my first Patterson book and it certainly won't be my last. The book was well written, enjoyable, and I loved the characters. To me the makings of a good book are looking forward to the next page and the one after that; what's going to happen next is not apparent; and I want to read more by... more info
