Death of the Black Widow

De: James Patterson, J. D. Barker

Narrado por: Ryan Vincent Anderson

She destroys the men she loves—and escapes every time. The most dangerous killer James Patterson has ever created is also his most seductive.

On his first night with Detroit PD, Officer Walter O’Brien is called to a murder scene. A terrified twenty-year-old has bludgeoned her kidnapper with skill that shocks even O’Brien’s veteran partner. The young woman is also a brilliant escape artist. Her bold flight from police custody makes the case impossible to solve—and, for Walter, even more impossible to forget.

By the time Walter’s promoted to detective, his fascination with the missing, gray-eyed woman is approaching obsession. And when Walter discovers that he’s not alone in his search, one truth is certain. This deadly string of secrets didn’t begin in his home city—but he’s going to make sure it ends there.

hhmmm..

what a deparrturre from the norm! wish the ending had been easier. almost of a different genre

Not what I expected

More like Dean Koontz than Patterson. Bizarre story with a bizarre ending. Not one of the better Patterson books for sure. Love Koontz but not when I'm expecting Patterson

That was unexpected ... the storyline

Patterson does like to spread his wings and write across many genres. This one is more in line of what I would expect from Barker. Great read / listen. Really well interwoven between the present and the past and very difficult to put down.

Complicated plot

Too far-fetched and boring at times. I expected more from 2 of my favorite writers. Well narrated

Two incredible authors

What do you expect from JD and Patterson? I’ve read most of Patterson and all of JD’s writings. Two wordsmiths for the price if one. I call that a bargain. Twelve hours of sumptuous entertainment for a fraction of the cost of a Prime Rib dinner. Have a glass of wine and enjoy with take-out. Deede Blake, author
