Publisher's Summary

A detective and an FBI agent join forces on what seems like an open-and-shut case — but a new rash of killings sends them on a pulse-pounding race against time in this intense thriller.

Michael and Megan Fitzgerald are siblings who share a terrifying past. Both adopted, and now grown — Michael is a long-haul truck driver, Megan a college student majoring in psychology — they trust each other before anyone else. They've had to. Their parents are public intellectuals, an Ivy League clinical psychologist and a renowned psychiatrist, and they brought up their adopted children in a rarefied, experimental environment. It sheltered them from the world's harsh realities, but it also forced secrets upon them, secrets they keep at all costs.

In Los Angeles, Detective Garrett Dobbs and FBI Agent Jessica Gimble have joined forces to work a murder that seems like a dead cinch. Their chief suspect is quickly identified and apprehended — but then there's another killing just like the one they've been investigating. And another. And not just in Los Angeles — the spree spreads across the country. The Fitzgerald family comes to the investigators' attention, but Dobbs and Gimble are at a loss — if one of the four is involved, which Fitzgerald might it be?

From coastal California to upstate New York, Dobbs and Gimble race against time and across state lines to stop an ingenious and deeply deranged killer — one whose dark and twisted appetites put them outside the range of logic or experience.

Skipping time in chapters starting in Chapter 47

I’m bummed! I wanted to continue listening to the story but it started skipping time And going straight into new chapters starting with paragraph 47 . Anyone else have this issue?

don't waste your time

don't waste your time. couldn't finish it. I usually like Paterson but this was awful

Do NOT order the Audible Version of this.

I found that Chapter 46 is cut off and Chapter 47 starts at if it's a new book to me. A lot must have been cut. Also, I read other reviews and it happens in other Chapters as well. I opened a ticket over 6 weeks ago and no resolution or status. Don't get this book until they fix it.

Terrible

I’ve read most of James Patterson books on audible and was so disappointed in this book. I know he is just putting his name on another authors work because he used to put out exceptional books or had better stories he was attachining his name onto. This book is very disjointed and just confusing and all over the place. It was extremely hard to follow the storyline and had no continuity. If I could ask for a refund I would, and the ending was stupid! It didn’t make any sense to me , just gave me more questions about what was happening. Mr Patterson please either write your own books instead of these subpar novels.

When you think you know, you’re so wrong

Delightfully twisty w/ some absolutely delicious plotting... As soon as you think you’ve got it figured, you’re wrong, and it continues in such a way through the entire story.... Reminded me of the De Palma Lithgow flick Raising Cain...

Absolutely fantastic!

One of my favorites! Very well done. Anything with JD Barker attached is gold. Would love a sequel.

They spin a great story

I just finished this book and I really hope nobody asks me how it ended or who did what when...not sure if I even know. But I do know I loved it and am going to start re-listening from the beginning today! Best book I’ve listened to in a long time. Right up there with JD Barker’s 4MK trilogy.
I hope they partner up again - and that Barker has a long and prolific professional life!

confusing at times, still a good book.

narrator's sounded good, story confusing sometimes, so much that ill listen again to understanf better..

Wow! Nail Biting from Start to Finish

The Coast-to-Coast Murders Written By James Patterson & J. D. Barker is a wild ride! Just when you have it all figured out, you're wrong! Action packed, fast paced, and thrilling. Highly Recommended 5 Stars

Great book, horrible reader

This would have been an excellent book to read, but it was a very disappointing audio book. There are three narrators, and the first guy is awful. He reads.... like.... Captain Kirk. It is... incredibly......... distracting.
