James Patterson can craft a story that keeps you on the edge of your seat the entire time. It’s a quick and easy read, and not too long. (And, in the hardback books, the print is really big.)
In this stand alone book, Ned Kelly and four of his best friends live in Palm Beach for the summer. Ned, a beach lifeguard, has just spent the day with the girl of his dreams, Tess. The next night Ned and his buddies are going to pull the biggest heist of their petty theft careers. Each is to walk away with $1 million dollars after they steal someone's personal art collection. But, the heist is a bust. The art is already stolen.
On his way back to the house, Ned comes across Tess’ body. When he reaches the house, the police are removing the bodies of his four best friends. Ned flees the scene. He knows that he is innocent, and he also knows the cops will be looking for him.
In this fast-paced story Ned uncovers a more complex cover job than he could have imagined. Will Ned be able to prove his innocence before it’s too late?
You can find this book on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, or your local bookstore.
