A decent mystery turned adventure thriller. Well-written, fast-paced. Good way to while away a couple of hours. ( )

Well I must say this was better than the last few Private novels I’ve read. Pretty typical though. I swear if that one guy used the word “bastard” one more time I was going to lose it!! ( )

FROM AMAZON: Private, the best investigation unit in the world, has agents who are the smartest, fastest, and most technologically advanced in the world -- and they always uncover the truth. No wonder the most influential men and women on the planet seek their help on a daily basis.

But there's only one client who can make its founder, Jack Morgan, drop everything and fly to London at full speed: Princess Caroline, third in line to the British throne.

She needs Morgan to find a friend who has mysteriously disappeared, a woman named Sophie Edwards. Though Princess Caroline insists it's just a missing-persons case, Morgan knows she's hiding something. The closer he gets to uncovering the truth, the more he realizes there are powerful people who will stop at nothing to keep Sophie from being found.

This is another exciting installment in the Private series. This time, Jack is in London, trying to find a friend of the princess. While there was a lot of excitement, there was also a lot of violence, which I think is excessive at times. There are a few shocks, including people who die.

Plot was okay, but I'll never read another Patterson book that has Rees Jones as a 'co-writer'. His author 'voice' sucks. Overblown narrative, dramatic (like a drama queen - really). Made Peter Knight sound like a whiney housewife. ( )
