Every chapter ended with a cliff hanger so I could not put it down! Read it this afternoon - 370 pages in an afternoon/evening meant it was gooood ( ) I love James Patterson. Whenever I want to read something quick and entertaining, he always delivers and he puts out so many books that there seems to always be something new. This particular book follows a journalist that gets pulled into the mob scene when he witnesses a gruesome murder. Like any good mystery, there are betrayals and loyalties. There are good twists and turns. I knew there were going to be betrayals but not who which I enjoy. I love when there are a few things that I do not figure out. Overall, this book was definitely worth reading and since it is not part of a series, the story is over. Lombardo's Steak House is beroemd om zijn steaks en clientèle, en berucht om de moord op een maffia-advocaat. Journalist Nick Daniels maakt de afrekening van dichtbij mee en krijgt bij toeval een belangrijk bewijsstuk in handen dat hem naar de daders kan leiden. Daniels hoopt het artikel van zijn leven te schrijven, maar zijn onderzoek leidt hem naar de kern van een Italiaans-Russische maffiaoorlog. Politiechefs, politieke kopstukken, mediamagnaten en een prachtige redactrice spelen allemaal hun rol in het spel, met ieder een eigen agenda.
I have read several of Patterson's books and this book was more than what I expected. By far the greatest of his work ever I will not stop reading his books. It stands up to it's name on this one because you "Don't Blink". Distinctions
The good: New York's Lombardo's Steak House is famous for three reasons, the menu, the clientele, and now, the gruesome murder of an infamous mob lawyer. Effortlessly, the assassin slips through the police's fingers, and his absence sparks a blaze of accusations about who ordered the hit. The bad: Seated at a nearby table, reporter Nick Daniels is conducting a once-in-a-lifetime interview with a legendary baseball bad boy. In the chaos, he accidentally captures a key piece of evidence that lands him in the middle of an all-out war between Italian and Russian mafia forces. NYPD captains, district attorneys, mayoral candidates, media kingpins, and one shockingly beautiful magazine editor are all pushing their own agendas on both sides of the law. And the dead: Back off or die is the clear message Nick receives as he investigates for a story of his own. Heedless, and perhaps in love with his beautiful editor, Nick endures humiliation, threats, violence, and worse in a thriller that overturns every expectation and finishes with the kind of flourish only James Patterson knows.
