** spoiler alert ** So far seems like the same fare from the James Patterson sweat shop as the other novels he has people write for him. Two page chapters make for easy reading. Some of the chapters aren't even a full page. I guess the sweat shop cranks out a hundred pages and then some editorhas to divide it up so it seems like a full book. They will break up moments into a couple single page chapters for some reason.

As for the story itself, I find it hard to believe that everyone forgets she had beend rinking except the people who are suing her. I am pretty sure if you shoot someone in the line of duty there is an investigation by some internal department and they would have questioned her about her blood alcohol.

Also that was the fastest trial date ever set in the history of mankind. In the past Alex Cross novels he had no problem letting the story ran the course over a lond period of time but when you are just churning out books for the money I guess you don't have the time write a full story.

Also when you have people forgetting/misplacing cell phones and guns you really lose credibility with me.

The end of the book was some tacked on garabage. The little girl not only has the details of the next crime she can guide the police to the killers in time to catch them in the act. Truly amazing.

Thank you lending library for saving me money.
