Description

Consider setting aside a few uninterrupted hours for a gripping reading experience. Author James Patterson, the #1 New York Times bestselling thriller writer, delivers a suspenseful, well-executed, and highly entertaining tale praised by Booklist as “excellent” and “genuinely suspenseful,” and described by Publishers Weekly as “loads of fun” with one wild twist after another.

When NYPD Detective Declan Shaw receives an urgent call summoning him to the upscale Beresford building on Central Park West, he finds a disturbing scene in a luxury tower apartment: a woman, drenched in blood, stands next to a lifeless body sprawled across the elegant living room floor. Every single book lining the apartment’s expansive shelves is written by the same bestselling true-crime author, Denise Morrow.

“This is you?” Shaw asks the blood-covered woman. “You’re a writer?”

Only one person knows exactly how this chilling scenario will end—the victim or the murderer?
