I have no words for the characters in this book. I have no idea about the intended audience, but clearly not women as any character that is not perfectly pretty or a former model is called a whore. Not recommended to anyone.

Audible. I could not find the book on Goodreads--only this summary. I listened to the book and found it just OK.

I've read several other books in the Private series. This one seemed to be lacking somehow. Patterson has these other people writing his books, and I guess he must supervise them. They all see to be very formulaic, they have short chapters and jump around a lot. In this one, I didn't think the characters were developed very well and it was just not that exciting.

Read the last line and did not realize that was the end of the story until I turned the page. Sigh. Johnny is a good character - Craig often gets in the way of moving the story along. He often seems to be playing catch-up.to the other characters.

This one started a little slow but once it got moving boy did it take off.

Another excellent analysis

As a teacher, I will often read summaries and analyses of books before assigning them. It helps me decide if I really want to use a certain text. This analysis is quite witty and perceptive in analyzing the novel. I love the way that the authors point out the flaws and shortcomings of the book. It reminds me of a Rotten Tomatoes review.

This analysis includes chapters summaries, character analysis, thematic motifs, and setting explanation. The price is just right compared to more expensive summaries and analyses.

This Private book wad ok. Not the best and certainly not the worst.

[Edmond Gagnon · Rating 4 out of 5]

A typical Patterson yarn, but the first one by Michael White I've read. How many people does Patterson have writing for him and using his name anyway?
I found quite a few characters to keep track of, but liked the "down under" spin.

[Denice Hogan · Rating 4 out of 5]

Typical James Patterson book. Keeps your interest but I am finding that there are 2 -3 stories going on at once. Would like to follow just one story line

[Suzanne Robbins · Rating 3 out of 5]

Pretty good book. Pretty fantastic plot

[Susanne De Trizio · Rating 3 out of 5]

GOOD

[Therese · Rating 2 out of 5]

Liked the Down Under aspect as I could relate to the location better than the usual USA stories. Bit grim though.

[Kathy Donald · Rating 4 out of 5]

One of the better books I have read in the Private series.

[Denise Hlavka · Rating 2 out of 5]

I wanted to give my brain a rest from complicated reads, so I read this before my husband returned it to the library.
This book is so far from complicated......it was just pretty inane. All those books sales allows James Patterson to just phone them in. Ugh!

[Alan Mock · Rating 1 out of 5]

"Cookie cutter" is the first thought that comes to mind

[Kurt · Rating 4 out of 5]

The killings are a
bit gruesome, but that doesn't bother me.
