Reviews Write A Review
This was my first Patterson novel and at first I was surprised to see how elementary the writing style was. However I decided I would read through the novel to see if it improved any. The charecter structure and plot structure were simple but I can not honestly say the story was a bad one, in fact I found that i liked the story and the reading was rather quick. overall I would recommend this novel, but would warn you not to expect a lot of details, just a basic simple but somewhat interesting story, with a few small surprises. I will have to read further works of Pattersons before I can truely decide if I love or hate his style.
This is a great book for mind candy. The writing keeps you entertained and holds your interest and its just a fast, easy read when you need a book for a distraction.Have to say Im not a fan at all of the ending but other than that most enjoyable when you need a break
