The Jester - James Patterson

The 5th Horseman - James Patterson

After some distinctly average attempts in the recent past I’m pleased to say that in my opinion The 5th Horseman is a welcome return to the previous high standards that Patterson has achieved as a thriller writer. Admittedly this book continues the trend of writing with a co-author, in this case Maxine Paetro, which usually signals a drop in quality but with this fifth instalment to features the Women’s Murder Club Patterson has served up a gripping fast paced novel with plenty of twists and turns. The Women’s Murder Club is an informal group of friends whose job roles mean that they support each other in the investigation of crimes, the lead character is Lieutenant Lindsay Boxer ...

The 5th Horseman - James Patterson

I have to confess that although I like James Patterson s books, I ve never really taken to his Women s Murder Club series. Right from the start, it s always seen a little far-fetched; a bit twee and, well, Nancy Drew-ish to me. Nevertheless, having read all the others, when I saw this going cheap in a charity shop, I thought I might as well give it a go. As you can imagine, my expectations weren t high, so I wasn t disappointed! Actually, by some standards, the Fifthth Horseman isn t a bad book. It s certainly very readable and I got through it in under two days, which must surely say something. As always, Patterson has a very enjoyable style, which really gives the book ...
