Unsolvable cases

Since former Marine Jack Morgan started Private, it has become the world's most effective investigation firm--sought out by the famous and the powerful to discreetly handle their most intimate problems. Private's investigators are the smartest, the fastest, and the most technologically advanced in the world--and they always uncover the truth.

Impossible murders

When his former lover is found murdered in Jack Morgan's bed, he is instantly the number one suspect. While Jack is under police investigation, the mob strong-arms him into recovering $30 million in stolen pharmaceuticals for them. And the beautiful manager of a luxury hotel chain persuades him to quietly investigate a string of murders at her properties.

The #1 suspect is Jack Morgan

While Jack is fighting for his life, one of his most trusted colleagues threatens to leave Private, and Jack realizes he is confronting the cleverest and most powerful enemies ever. With more action, more intrigue, and more twists than ever before, Private: #1 Suspect is James Patterson at his unstoppable best.

Busting the van filled with drugs out of the warehouse.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No extreme reactions. I enjoyed the book but it wasn't a life changer.

Any additional comments?

I like James Patterson's writing but this wasn't his best. Not bad, but not his best.

couldn't hang

just couldn't find a place to grab hold of the book. I went to sleep and it played out. Sorry.

Great book, not great voice artist.

I wish they would have used the same voice artist from the first book... the new artist has an annoying twang that doesn’t match the character at all and just pierced the ears sometimes. But the book itself was great.

Another good read

Good always like this series. Have listen to several books. Why does Audible make you leave a 15 word comment?

Horrible Narrator!

Why not stick with the first narrator? He was great. This one sounded whiny, not strong. He would have been great with Tommy's voice but it didn't belong to Jack. The story was good though, only reason why I listened to the whole thing.
