Read this way out of order, but it's only a novella and it's a Patterson so I figured it wouldn't much matter. I was right. I haven't read anything else in the Michael Bennett series, but I don't think that had any effect. We meet up with Bennett in between major cases and he does his thing to solve the crime. Like he's supposed do. It's his job after all as both a police detective and the main character of a series of thiller/suspense books. There really wasn't anything to endear me to the character and at less than 150 pages, there really wasn't much to endear me to the actual murder case either. It wasn't terrible, but it's nothing I won't forget in a week or two.
The mystery was adequate. The characters, while not very deep were adequate. The writing was simplistic and adequate. Basically the best word to describe this book: Adequate.
