THE 23rd MIDNIGHT by James Patterson opens with an unspeakable act of violence which leads to more acts of violence. A serial killer who calls himself "Blackout" is taunting Detective Lindsay Boxer by sending her videos of his crimes.  With no clues as to his identity, the case is beyond frustrating.  But when he kidnaps Lindsay's close friend, the case escalates to another level, can they find the serial killer before even more people die?

In this skillfully crafted and well-plotted story, tension runs high throughout.  The investigation is explained carefully and highly detailed.  Readers are given a front-row seat into how the search for answers unfolds. The story is packed with danger, action, and twists.  No stone is left unturned as Lindsay and her team rush to find the serial killer who has her friend's fate in his hands.

I found THE 23rd MIDNIGHT to be an intriguing and exciting story that is guaranteed to hold the reader's interest from start to finish.
