Review & Giveaway - Worst Case by James Patterson and Michael Ledwidge {CLOSED}

Pin It


Alex Cross has Washington, DC. The Women's Murder Club has San Francisco. Detective Michael Bennett has all of New York City—chaos capital of the world.

Best case: Survival
The son of one of New York's wealthiest families is snatched off the street and held hostage. His parents can't save him, because this kidnapper isn't demanding money. Instead, he quizzes his prisoner on the price others pay for his life of luxury. In this exam, wrong answers are fatal.

Worst case: Death
Detective Michael Bennett leads the investigation. With ten kids of his own, he can't begin to understand what could lead someone to target anyone's children. As another student disappears, another powerful family uses their leverage and connections to turn up the heat on the mayor, the press—anyone who will listen—to stop this killer. Their reach extends all the way to the FBI, which sends its top Abduction Specialist, Agent Emily Parker. Bennett's life—and love life—suddenly get even more complicated.

This case: Detective Michael Bennett is on it
Before Bennett has a chance to protest the FBI's intrusion on his case, the mastermind changes his routine. His plan leads up to the most devastating demonstration yet—one that could bring cataclysmic ruin to every inch of New York City. From the shocking first page to the last exhilarating scene, Worst Case is a nonstop thriller from "America's #1 storyteller" (Forbes).
I have mentioned time and time again that James Patterson is my absolute favorite author, ever. I have been reading his books for years and have read quite a bit of them. Maybe one day I'll read them all

I have never read a James Patterson book that I did not like. In fact, there hasn't been one that I even disliked a little bit. With so many edge of your seat thrillers, how couldn't you be entertained?

James Patterson and Michael Ledwidge did an outstanding job with Worst Case. I could not put this book down, in fact I "made" time for it. I went to bed early 2 nights in a row and finished it this evening.

Alone time + good book = Happy me

This story has twists and turns at every corner and a storyline like you wouldn't think of. The bad guy in this book is one crazy man. But he's super smart too, which is a very deadly combination.

I've read other books with the character Michael Bennet, and I've always liked his character. I like the personal stuff they've brought out and hope to see more of his "love" like in other books.

Buy It!
