Product Description Best case: survival
The son of one of New York's wealthiest families is snatched off the street and held hostage. His parents can't save him, because this kidnapper isn't demanding money. Instead, he quizzes his prisoner on the price others pay for his life of luxury. In this exam, wrong answers are fatal.
Worst case: death
Detective Michael Bennett leads the investigation. With ten kids of his own, he can't begin to understand what could lead someone to target anyone's children. As another student disappears, one powerful family after another uses their leverage and connections to turn the heat up on the mayor, the press--anyone who will listen--to stop this killer. Their reach extends all the way to the FBI, who send their top Abduction Specialist, Agent Emily Parker. Bennett's life--and love life--suddenly get even more complicated.
This case: Detective Michael Bennett is on it
Before Bennett has a chance to protest the FBI's intrusion on his case, the mastermind changes his routine. His plan leads up to the most devastating demonstration yet--one that could bring cataclysmic devastation to every inch of New York. From the shocking first page to the last exhilarating scene, Worst Case is a non-stop thriller from "America's #1 storyteller" (Forbes).

KY Lady March 18, 2010 P. S. Murray (Western KY, USA) As usual I was very pleased with both the books and the transaction.
I LOVE Amazon!
An exciting story with an engaging hero March 17, 2010 Sheila L. Beaumont (South Pasadena, CA USA) James Patterson's co-authored books vary quite a bit in quality, and I think this one, along with the first two books in the series, is among the best of them. NYPD detective Michael Bennett, the widowed father of 10 delightful adopted children, is an engaging protagonist. In this action-packed tale, Bennett, along with FBI agent Emily Parker, is in pursuit of an extremely dangerous, deranged killer with a political ax to grind who is kidnapping the teenage offspring of some of New York's wealthiest families. It's an exciting, suspenseful, enthralling read that aficionados of fast-paced thrillers with a good, complex plot, plenty of twists and turns, and likable, intelligent main characters will enjoy.
Worst Case March 17, 2010 Marjorie A. Sallier Great did not know this was first book of this series, bought two by mistake, gave the second one as a gift, Thank you for the fast delivery.
Great read March 13, 2010 Alex Schievink (Utrecht, NLD) What can I say? It's James Patterson. Buy this book, and prepare for a weekend on the couch!
