I thought this book was amazing. I would recommend it to anyone who likes detective stories. But this book isn't like those sherlock holmes detective stories. This book is a lot better. It can be gruesome at times, but it's still great. It made me think about how there are things in life that are like it says in the book. I think James Patterson did a great job with this book and making it as close to the real thing. Though i don't think i would want something like this to happen here. Some things in there are too much for real life.
