Critic Reviews

Smart characters, shocking twists... you count down to the very last page to discover what will happen next (Lisa Gardner)
I couldn't turn the pages quick enough. Great plot, fantastic storytelling and character that spring off the page - all the right ingredients for a thriller (Heidi Perks)
Terrific, high-octane, really pacy... every scene is a film - every character real, and every plot point leaves us breathless (Jo Spain)
Patterson knows where our deepest fears are buried... there's no stopping his imagination
A writer with an unusual skill at thriller plotting
Patterson is in a class by himself
No one gets this big without natural storytelling talent - which is what Jim has, in spades (Lee Child)
James Patterson is the boss. End of. (Ian Rankin)
Patterson boils a scene down to a single, telling detail, the element that defines a character or moves a plot along. It's what fires off the movie projector in the reader's mind (Michael Connelly)
All stars

I have been a women’s murder club fan for over a decade so am really disappointed that the books now seem very unrealistic and the story lines are losing steam. It feels like the series is a few books too long and sadly should have wound up already

Sadly not a fave
