Bewertet mit 2 Sternen

Lean back and read a Patterson's book! It is going to blow you away! Yes, right, isn't it? At least, this is not. It could at one point, but not with Michael Bennett!

Detective Michael Bennett is star of another book series by James Patterson. New York city - his station. This is his third case (first: "Step on a crack", second: "Run for your life") and it turns out to be his worst. Somebody is kidnapping the children of New York's wealthiest families.
