This was not your usual James Patterson book. The story opens in a small diner in Hollows Bend, New Hampshire. A naked young woman appears in front of the diner looking dazed and confused. Then it would seem all Hell breaks loose.
On the plus side, lots of action. The suspense builds nicely through the book. The author team does a great job keeping the reader guessing on who was the villain and what was going to happen next.
On the minus side, I've never been a fan of the split narrative the authors employ in this book. Too many characters, too many story lines, too many themes makes for a somewhat muddled story. It leaves the reader wondering just exactly what they read. Was it a mystery...thriller...sci fi or paranormal fantasy?
Overall, I'd give the book three out of five stars.
In the spirit of full disclosure, I received a free copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
