The Summer House was once the place to go for rest and relaxation in rural Georgia but it has now turned into a ramshackle rental. Seven people were murdered in that house. Most heart-breaking was that one of those victims was a small child. The prime suspects are four Army Rangers stationed at a local base. Major Jeremiah Cook, former NYPD and veteran, is sent to investigate, along with his team. The problem is no one wants them there, including the accused. Undeterred, Major Cook and his team press on because the puzzle pieces just will not fit together as nicely as the local Sheriff wants them to. As time winds down, the pressure mounts to find out what everyone is hiding and most important to keep himself and his team alive.
THE SUMMER HOUSE is one of James Pattersonβs and Brendan DuBoisβs best work. This book is hard to review because once the action starts and builds, one thing leads to another and pretty soon those pieces of the puzzle instantly snap into place. This book covers a lot of hot topic issues; military coverups, racism, small town corruption, abuse of power, and protecting those we hold dear. All of these topics are handled masterfully with the storytelling power this duo has perfected.
