NYPD Red is the elite, highly trained task force assigned to protect the rich, the famous, and the connected. Detective Zach Jordan and his partner Kylie MacDonald -- the woman who broke his heart at the police academy -- are the best of the best, brilliant and tireless investigators who will stop at nothing to deliver justice. Zach and Kylie's New Year's celebrations are cut short when they're called to the home of billionaire businessman Hunter Alden, Jr. after he makes a grisly discovery in his townhouse garage. When Alden's teenage son goes missing soon afterwards, and his father seems oddly reluctant to find him, Zach and Kylie find themselves in the middle of a chilling conspiracy that threatens everyone in its wake -- especially their city's most powerful citizens.

I've come to judge James Pattersons' books (as far as the NYPD Red series goes) before reading them. I knew the writing would be...different from other authors'. How should I describe it? I guess I would call it really cut-and-dry. The characters seem to keep talking in clipped sentences, though maybe that was a point since the main characters are cops. However, the civilians spoke in clipped sentences too. I guess it was just too...clinical. I didn't get many feels from this book. :/
And then...there's Zach. I'm trying not to spoil anything, but I guess I've got to say that he's pretty much a dick. His indecision between Cheryl and Kylie is frustrating and gives a bad name to men. Kylie wasn't completely innocent either, the way she put the vibes out. All around annoying. GET OVER EACH OTHER. GET BETTER PERSONALITIES-maybe then you'll get better and more dating options.
