Publisher's summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
The new thriller from worldwide best-selling author James Patterson.
Angela Hoot is a young tech genius. But when she's kicked off her master's degree course at MIT for hacking into the computer of a fellow student, she fears she's blown her chances of a glittering career.
Instead, Angela is offered a dream position with the FBI. She jumps at the chance and is thrown in at the deep end.
Her first assignment is at a house in the Boston suburbs where a family of five has been brutally murdered.
As Angela struggles to overcome the painful reality of her new job, a phone is found that could hold the secrets of this mass murder - if Angela is unable to uncover them.

1st Case
Wow, what a book, the old style James Patterson, in new book! This is definitely on my top of my best audio books I've listened to this year. Love the new character and am definitely looking forward to the next book. The suspense was everywhere! The narration was excellent.

Boring
I did not enjoy this book. The main character whines and cries the whole time, and cannot make up her mind whether she is gay or not. For a genius she is pretty stupid. This is the last time I am going to try a new James Patterson. Maybe he should take a break from writing for a while.

Too far fetched
Okay book, nothing more - not really credible. Will not bother with any follow up though
Clearly not written by James Patterson, just another book churned out under his name

Great!!!
Another great read. So many twists and turns but still believable. Wonder if this is a stand alone or the beginning of a new series. Thank you.

Fast passes with twists, turns and humour!
Loved this from start to finish! Not too long but gives you ample time to warm to the characters and enjoy the story. Brittany Pressley is flawless (as per!) she’ll forever be one of my favourite narrators.

So Un-Patterson
It was boring and uninteresting. So many plot holes. Not very Patterson. The voiceover is cringey especially with her doing male voices.

I really enjoyed this book, it kept my interest (I tend to wander) and I love the digital-coding side of the FBI, I really hope there is more to come from Angela, Billy and Eve. fingers crossed.

Books from J. Patterson and co are formulated
l was extremely disappointed with this book.
1. so predictably fanciful
2. such shallow characters
3. so childish
4. slim plot if any
5. and the new bandwagon of bi-sexuality
In short not worth the cost of a credit

It sounded so perfect—a month's assignment at the lush Scottish Highlands property of architect Alban McGregor, and his wife, Jessica. But in the woods, there's a playhouse with a chilling history. Two years ago, the McGregors' daughter Elodie was abducted and then died in that playhouse. The townspeople insist her abductor had to be a stranger in their town. Alban refuses to knock the playhouse down, even keeping a picture of it on his wall.

Visiting her family's South Carolina estate, socialite Gray Godfrey wakes from a night out to an empty bed. Her husband, Paul, is gone, and a thrashing hangover has wiped her memory clean. At first, she's relieved for the break from her tumultuous marriage; perhaps Paul just needed some space. But when his car is found abandoned on the highway, Gray must face the truth: Paul is gone. And Gray may not want him found. Her life is unraveling. When a stranger named Annie calls claiming to know Paul's whereabouts, Gray reluctantly accepts her help.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.
