This is the first James Patterson book I've ever read. In the past, Patterson's books never had trouble moving off of the shelf. With this book being the first in a new series for Patterson, I thought I would pick it up and see what the hype was all about. I was disappointed in this book to say the least. I'm sure some of my students that like his other books will enjoy this one, but it just didn't do it for me. At least now I can say I've read a James Patterson book. Book #2 in the series will be released in October.
From goodreads.com:
James Patterson returns to the genre that made him famous with a thrilling teen detective series about the mysterious and magnificently wealthy Angel family . . . and the dark secrets they're keeping from one another.
On the night Malcolm and Maud Angel are murdered, Tandy Angel knows just three things: 1) She was the last person to see her parents alive. 2) The police have no suspects besides Tandy and her three siblings. 3) She can't trust anyone—maybe not even herself. Having grown up under Malcolm and Maud's intense perfectionist demands, no child comes away undamaged. Tandy decides that she will have to clear the family name, but digging deeper into her powerful parents' affairs is a dangerous-and revealing-game. Who knows what the Angels are truly capable of?
