Bestselling author James Patterson weaves a suspenseful tale of a powerful mobster who runs up against a very determined cop and his faithful crime fighters.
A stunningly brilliant psychopathic killer who has skillfully eluded the police from London to Paris to New York. A beautiful woman journalist suddenly in grave danger. An unorthodox New York detective whose motive for stopping the killer couldn't be more personal or emotional.
All bound by the chains of secrecy, wealth, and crime formed by the cabal called The Midnight Club.

Robert Forster is so relaxed that he makes oatmeal seem adventurous. Further, his western New York accent, which turns the word "absolutely" into "EBsolutely," is distracting. Together, these qualities don't seem like the best match with the cops-and-crime world of James Patterson. But Forster, who truly is a talented actor, ultimately triumphs. By the time Patterson wraps up this adventure, which pits a wheelchair-bound NYPD detective and his book-writing girlfriend, against a secret society of high-level mobsters, Forster proves his worth. Patterson has created several plot lines that ultimately converge in scenes of well-drawn tension, and no one translates such tension better than Forster. D.W. (c) AudioFile, Portland, Maine -
