I loved this book! It had an intriguing plot line, and many characters that developed and intertwined. I could not put it down! I highly recommend it to readers who enjoy engaging mystery.

LOVED this one! One of the Patterson & Karp best. It does have some 'gore' so be prepared, but it has some great twists! Highly recommended

One of my favorite Jack Reacher stories. Spell binding; a real page turner. Didn't see the result coming.

In my humble opinion, this is the BEST book in the Alex Cross series by far! The book is a very good read, the plots are engaging, and I found it hard to put down. Highly recommended.

This was my least favorite of all the James Patterson books I have read (which is considerable). It didn't hold my interest and took a long time to read because I kept putting it down. I'm hoping the other "Private" books in the series are more engaging.

I loved this book - it kept my interest from beginning to end and never lost it. It surprised me which few books do; I usually rate a book on how quickly I figure out what's coming as I read. I truly didn't see this one coming at all until it was almost over. Highly recommend.

Helpful Score: 6


This is the new character - detective Michael Bennett. It is a real page-turner which found suspense, laughter, and even tears, but left me wanting more of this new hero! I didn't see the end coming which, to me, is the mark of a great story! A must read!

I have loved all Stuart Woods books since I read my very first one many, many years ago (Palindrome). I especially enjoy the Stone Barrington series and this one doesn't disappoint. I always enjoy the return and expansion of old characters, and introduction of new ones. I look forward with great anticipation to the next in the series.
