2nd Chance

This is the second Patterson novel I've read after 1st to Die and I find myself having to force myself to read other books in between for fear that I'd never get anything done otherwise. I am gripped by this series.

Both if the first two books I've devoured in a day which for a busy young mum of 4 children is a true testament to how gripping they are.

Bringing back all the old characters from Book One and tying together the plots nicely this book sets off at a cracking pace and doesn't let up. Again just when you think the case has been cracked there's more twists and turns than you can imagine. I was just on edge with this book and loved it.

Have forced another book into my kindle but I was sorely tempted to just read the 3rd instalment immediately but am keeping it like my secret craving....

I find it hard to rate police procedurals like it as they are all fairly similar and formulaic but yet I still really enjoy them! Patterson writes well, it's fast paced, interesting and will keep you turning the pages. This one had a good storyline and good pace, however I would like to see a bit more depth and development to the characters. I found everything very surface level but know this is a longer series so hope we explore more with the characters as we progress.
