So I've been ploughing my way through James Patterson's Murder Club series very quickly, having never read one of his novels before I read the first in the series.

4th of July was a slower book, but in 5th Horseman he is back on form and this book has much more of the mystery of the earlier novels and goes back to sharing the story more evenly across all the lead characters rather than focusing purely on Lyndsey Boxer.

A great story of mysterious deaths in a hospital, some truly touching cases outlined and nicely interwoven alongside another storyline of dead rape victims found in unusual circumstances. Gripping and tightly written I find on my Kindle that one minute I'm 5% in and the next it's 50% and it feels like I've not caught my breath. Looking forward to Book 6
