A team of kidnappers has been snatching successful, upstanding men and women right before their families' eyes--possibly to sell them into slavery. Alex's knowledge of the D.C. streets, together with his unique insights into criminal psychology, make this mindbending case one that only he can solve--if he can just get his colleagues to set aside their staid and outdated methods. With unexpected twists and whiplash surprises, this is another brilliantly irresistible novel from America's bestselling suspense writer. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Sloppy writing. Mindless cliches.....What a disappointing book! James Patterson has done such a poor job of writing this book, that you wonder exactly what he had in mind. The dialog is banal and full of cliches. The plot is unbelievable. The characters are one dimensional. Even the ending resolves nothing. It just seems to be setting you up for the next book in the series.... The main character, Alex Cross, is incredibly cliched and unbelievable. He is a bright young police officer, who happens to be ... Read More Rating: - This "best seller" had no endingI think Patterson needs to take a vacation then return and write the way he did in Kiss the Girls which was the first Patterson book that I read. Cross as an FBI agent is in the loop, then out of the loop, etc. etc. without any explanation of why or who is doing it. You have to suspend your disbelieve as things just do not happen this way even with the worst of investigations. Wolf, the master villain, is unstoppable but never any explanation of how he does all the things during the story. ... Read More Rating:  - Kidnapping With a TwistTerm LimitsThe Goring CollectionThe Pelican Brief Kidnapping is not unusual to top law enforcement and certainly not to the FBI. However James Patterson has thrown a curve ball at the general kidnapping scenario. There are no threats or ransom demands of any kind. The several victims so far are gorgeous drop-dead model types that have no ties to the underworld; at least they had none before they were snatched off the street in broad daylight. A man and woman are watching Mrs. Elizabeth, ... Read More Rating: - Who's Afraid of the Big Bad WolfWell after reading the previous books in this series and really not liking Four Blind Mice, I have to said this book probably ranked just above that one. Even though the book was a quick read, I don't really understand what's going on. The book takes you from NY, to DC, to FL, to TX, to CO then back to DC. I felt that Alex would eventually connect with "The Wolf" only he never did. I didn't like how the book ended with Christine and Little Alex or with the Wolf. Other than the ending, I have to say the ... Read More Rating: - Basic but viciousYou have try to understand what Patterson is doing. He isn't attempting "great writing." It's suspense fiction, and is supposed to use a direct and powerful style. If the style was more elaboate it would get in the way of the plot. Having said that, this isn't his best book. The Wolf is an intersting character or could have been if more developed. But the premise of someone abducting sexy women to be used as sexual entertainment has been done so many times, it isn't an orginal plot. It does have the usual ... Read More
