BURN is a Detective Michael Bennett story from James
Patterson and Michael Ledwidge. BURN has a gruesome and
shocking beginning and you quickly realize you're not
putting it down any time soon. As with all his books
written alone and with other authors BURN is a fun,
exciting and quick read.
Detective Bennett heads back to
New York with his grandfather Seamus, Mary Catherine the
nanny who is also his on again off again love interest and
all ten of the kids. Detective Bennett isn't expecting a
hero's welcome upon his return to New York from helping to
track and capture an international murder and drug dealer,
but he certainly isn't expecting the chilly reception he
receives from the NYPD command.
Detective Bennett is placed
in a new command and a within a day a police officer under
his command is found dead. Though it looks like suicide he
knows better and now he must look into the death without
the backing of the department. Now facing a new job, a
murder willing to kill cops, problems related to one of
his
children Detective Bennett must overcome it all and help
catch diamond thieves before the diamond traders of the
world descend upon New York City. James Patterson is the
master of shocking and sick murders and this one certainly
fits the sicko profile.
I love James Patterson stories. The Michael Bennett
series
written with Michael Ledwidge is one of my favorites,
along
with the Cross series and Women's Murder Club and ....well
you get my point. The Michael Bennett stories have
great
characters. The Bennett clan of ten adopted children with
the loving hard working father, grandfather and wonderful
over worked yet never complaining nanny are so easy to
connect to and enjoy reading about. Though this is part of
a series, you are able to read it as a standalone and
still
enjoy it but I recommend reading them all.
I really enjoy
the way James Patterson has taken numerous authors under
his wing and co writes with them giving the reader
numerous
great series and introducing us to authors we may not have
otherwise enjoyed. The stories use his format for writing
which is quick easy to the point and doesn't waste a lot
of
pages on useless information and over descriptive crap.
His
writing is to the point, thrilling and gratifying. If you
enjoy thrillers, police stories and great supporting cast
you will love BURN.
Detective Michael Bennett finally returns to New York
City--and to the most unsettling,
horrific case of his career.
At last, Detective Michael Bennett and his family are
coming
home to New York City. Thanks
to Bennett, the ruthless crime lord whose vengeful mission
forced the Bennett family into
hiding has been brought down for good.
Back in the city that never sleeps, Bennett takes over a
chaotic Outreach Squad in Harlem,
where he receives an unusual call: a man claims to have
seen
a group of well-dressed men
holding a bizarre party in a condemned building. With no
clear crime or evidence, Bennett
dismisses the report. But when a charred body is found in
that very same building, he is
forced to take the demented caller seriously--and is drawn
into an underground criminal
world of terrifying depravity.
