Representaion To Books The Postcard Killers
Paris is stunning in the summerNYPD detective Jacob Kanon is on a tour of Europe's most gorgeous cities. But the sights aren't what draw him--he sees each museum, each cathedral, and each cafe through the eyes of his daughter's killer.
The killing is simply marvelous
Kanon's daughter, Kimmy, and her boyfriend were murdered while on vacation in Rome. Since then, young couples in Paris, Copenhagen, Frankfurt, and Stockholm have been found dead. Little connects the murders, other than a postcard to the local newspaper that precedes each new victim.
Wish you were here
Now Kanon teams up with the Swedish reporter, Dessie Larsson, who has just received a postcard in Stockholm--and they think they know where the next victims will be. With relentless logic and unstoppable action, The Postcard Killers may be James Patterson's most vivid and compelling thriller yet.

Not one of Pattersons best books. Kind of a let down. Post card killers are moving across Europe killing couples by slashing their throats and putting them in poses according to famous art exhibits. Jacob a cop from New York is hot on the case because his daughter was one of the first victims. He meets up with Dessie a reporter in Sweeden and they work to solve the case, while doing this they fall in love. Not much to the story or the capture. I was a little disappointed with this one. I am aI usually dont get into the actual content of the book in my reviews, I just express my views on the book.. but am not able to stop myself here.This novel has degraded the meaning of art as much as possible and the dignity of brother and sister relationship was brought down.Felt that some unfitting content was introduced at unfitting situations, just to make the novel a commercial success.There were some unanswered questions in the book..If the killers are trying to just create an imitation of
Up until this point, I had read two and a half books by Patterson (in his adult range). The half book so disgusted me that I gave up. All three of them were Alex Cross books, and I think that was a major reason why I didn't really like his books--his writing of an African-American detective was so very bizarre that it made me uncomfortable. Plus, I believe that Patterson clearly wins the "Author of the Creepiest, Most Disturbing, and Downright Disgusting Sexytimes" award. Like, ever. I would not
I haven't read a James Patterson novel before. Or rather, I haven't read a novel that James Patterson stuck his name on before. I know as well as anybody that he doesn't write his own books and I debated even writing his name here. First things first: This book was a page turner. It was entertaining and fine for what it was- a throwaway, forgettable time killer of a novel. Totally fine for that. In 5 months, I'll probably have totally forgotten this books existence. If I were judging this book
3.5*Not bad at all. I enjoyed the story and characters. I love standalones but some of these characters would have been interesting to read about in series format for sure. The international hunt of these killers is pretty engrossing and the story does move at a good pace. My only issue was the quick succession of the romance aspect of the two main characters. This story is twisted in a nature but that just adds to the story. It only takes four or five hours to read it (I read the mass market
