2,5/5. Full of clichés and stereotypes. The characters have no contrast at all, they go from black to white in two seconds. The story, isn't even an intrigue, just a series of little action scene fit together with a tine string that hold it. I don't get the high review this book has(rated over 4 stars at the moment). This is like a low b-movie but in a book. Yes there is some part you say that was good, but most of the time I was asking myself why I was going through it... which isn't a good thing. In a world so full of book, so full of thriller/crime/cops novels, there are way better book and author then this one. There is just a lack of quality, character development, originality and plot. Every aspect are there but just not enough at a high quality.

And in an editorial level I'm one of those who question how Patterson get so many books out, and how his co-writing process really work, did he even write that book or does he has become some sort of edition trademark whee it just put his name on a book, get a cut and barely look at it, to make it sell more copies. There is just many questions to be ask and answer on that subject... Anyway... maybe write a bit less and get deeper and more original could help. The true example that number of sell and quality are not necessarily related!
