★☆☆☆☆
Terrible.
I haven't read Patterson in a while now (few years) but with my new Kindle, decided to jump back into his writing. I'll keep this short, especially since I'm not one for writing reviews. Bottom line: this book is terrible. The plot, which intrigues at first, quickly becomes tiresome. The additional "filler" as one reviewer put it, is exactly that: you could remove the entire Nana thread cutting the book by a third and still end up with the same character development and ending. The end is (not a spoiler) just flat out worthless. I actually read the few remaining pages of the next book (advertised at the end of this book) hoping that I would receive something else - anything else - to appease my disappointment, unfortunately no luck. Seems like this book was quickly "manufactured" using Patterson's name as the only means of selling copies. You can definitely find much better books for the same price or better.
