‘I thought you’d never quit.’
Book 2 in the Holmes, Margaret (Marple) and Poe series Holmes has been missing in action for several months, doing a stint in rehab, leaving his partners to carry on day to day. When six infants are spirited away from the local hospital it’s all hands on deck, including Holmes...who is convinced he not only gave up addiction in rehab, but investigating, until an evil no one saw coming seeks him out and dares him to play the game again, leaving us hanging for book 3. All in all, a solid if not thrilling outing in what hopes to be a long lasting series.

Probably my favorite James Patterson novel of all time! It’s got the trademark snappy, short chapters you expect, with hints of Doyle, Poe and Christie woven throughout. Mysteries galore and the big one, exactly who are Brendan Holmes, Margaret Marple and Auguste Poe?
