This book read very quickly. Anytime I had a second to spare I would read. It was full of suspense with no tiring moments.

[Patt · Rating 5 out of 5]

Second book in the Private series was as good as the first. We listened to the audio book on a trip and it kept our interest the entire time. Jack Morgan not only has to solve the crime, but finds himself the suspect in his ex-girlfriends murder.

I like James Patterson and his style. This was fast paced and I liked the characters. I will be looking forward to new additions in this series.

Why do I keep picking up Patterson's books? I think it is because I like the short-chapter, fast-paced style that Patterson is known for. As for content, well.....
