About this ebook

The scene is set for a huge funeral in St Patrick's Cathedral in New York. The rich and the famous from all over America - and beyond - have arrived to honour a former First Lady after her sudden, unexpected death.

Then follows an attack that was three years in the planning. Hostages are taken - the ex-President among them - ransoms demanded, a couple of hostages shot to show the kidnappers mean business.

It's all brilliantly and chillingly co-ordinated, and Michael Bennett, the detective in charge of the case, knows it will be his biggest ever challenge.

Overall very thrilling, but not the best James Patterson book I read at the end I felt that the author had left some crucial bits out. I don't want to say too much in case I give away any spoilers.

Full of unexpected twists and turns and even tears shed. A short read but worth it.

All those kids? Really?? Everyone so nice and wholesome was too much. Baddies were stereotypes.
