Synopsis

NYPD Red 2: Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience! *

When NYPD Red arrives at a crime scene, everyone takes notice. Known as the protectors of the rich, famous, and connected, NYPD Red is the elite task force called in only for New York City's most high-profile crimes. And Detective Zach Jordan is the best of the best, a brilliant and relentless pursuer of justice. He puts professionalism above all, ignoring his feelings for his partner, Detective Kylie MacDonald, the woman who broke his heart when they first met in the academy.

But even with their top-notch training, Zach and Kylie aren't prepared for what they see when they're called to a crime scene in the heart of Central Park. They arrive to find a carousel spinning round and round, its painted horses grinning eerily in the early morning dark. There is only one rider: a brutally slaughtered woman, her body tied up and dressed in a Hazmat suit, on display for the world to see.

The victim, a woman of vast wealth and even greater connections, is the fourth in a string of shocking murders that have hit the city. As the public pressure mounts, and political and personal secrets of the highest order hang in the balance, Zach and Kylie must find out what's really behind the murderer's rampage. But Kylie has been acting strange recently--and Zach knows whatever she's hiding could threaten the biggest case of their careers.

NYPD Red 2 is the next outstanding novel in James Patterson's newest series, a thriller that careens through New York City and deep into the psyche of a depraved killer you've never seen before.

The crime plot in the second book of the NYPD Red series is even better than the first. I thought I had it predicted and then boom, I was wrong on the two killers.

Goodreads review by Traci on April 01, 2014

I feel like I should apologise when I give such a high rating to a book like this. This is a book with absolutely no nutritional value. It is the "Olympus Has Fallen" of books. But the thing is, sometimes I want to watch "Olympus Has Fallen". And sometimes I want to read the cheesiest James Patterson......more

Goodreads review by Erin on April 01, 2014

NYPD Red, the first, was one of my favorite books by James Patterson. In general I am a HUGE Patterson fan, but had kind of hit a snag with the Private series. NYPD Red 2 was just as good as NYPD Red; fast moving, twisty, interesting, and above all, a page turner. I love the characters; Zach and Kyl......more
