Jack and Zee Barnes are a couple who have everything they want and need and more: a family, a large house, a thriving business and a baby on the way. So, when a violent and shocking murder occurs, the shit inevitably hits the fan.
Although slightly longer than a kids' book and readable in one session, this mini novel slash short story truly hits the spot, especially when it comes to horror crime.
I read this book today as I was slightly bored with uni work and wanted to fade into another world for a short while and this was and is the short book in my line of books sat on the floor currently. It's well written with shocking and graphic descriptions, mystery which keeps you guessing and an unexpected ending. However, I didn't find that it scared me in any way. Saying that, you and I shouldn't be surprised seeing as I've read a large amount of horror and appear to immune to such.
As a final comment I will say that when I have the time I shall be picking up another of James Patterson's novels which I believe I own.
Book number three of the R.I.P. reading challenge complete with an overall rating of 4/5
Location:London,United Kingdom
The only thing I have really read by Patterson is his Women's Murder Club series. Glad this one was good.
