Private Series by James Patterson -> Starting June 3rd, 2018

[Alaina]

The police can't help you

Former Marine helicopter pilot Jack Morgan runs Private, a renowned investigation company with branches around the globe. It is where you go when you need maximum force and maximum discretion. The secrets of the most influential men and women on the planet come to Jack daily--and his staff of investigators uses the world's most advanced forensic tools to make and break their cases.

The press will destroy you

Jack is already deep into the investigation of a multi-million dollar NFL gambling scandal and the unsolved slayings of 18 schoolgirls when he learns of a horrific murder close to home: his best friend's wife, Jack's former lover, has been killed. It nearly pushes him over the edge. Instead, Jack pushes back and devotes all of Private's resources to tracking down her killer.

Only one place to turn: Private

But Jack doesn't have to play by the rules. As he closes in on the killer and chooses between revenge and justice, Morgan has to navigate a workplace love affair that threatens to blow the roof off his plans. With a plot that moves at death-defying speeds, Private is James Patterson sleekest, most exciting thriller ever.

so about 25%(view spoiler)[ in now and not sure how I feel about this. I feel like there is so much going on between his friends senseless murder, the NFL case, the girls being murdered and the celebrity missing....I'm having a hard time keeping it all straight its jumping around a lot. I like jack he seems like a good character. although I'm hoping for some more character development. (hide spoiler)]

[Nicole]

About 50% in now(view spoiler)[, I like it a little more but still it seems to jump around a heck of a lot. I like Jack and his don't give a shit demeanor, but why pay his brothers debt? Seems stupid as hell its just enabling his problem. I am not sure I like his ex, can't remember her name, Janelle? the shrink, she seems weird to me. I will keep trying but I feel like the past 25% i didn't even learn much about the cases.....only that Shelby worked as a prostitute, I want the cases to get better! (hide spoiler)]

[Nicole]

about 75% in (view spoiler)[ (hide spoiler)]

[Nicole]

It wasn't bad I felt like there was A LOT going on in the whole thing and expected the ending to be a bit better with everything going on through it. almost like the end was rushed.
