Review title: Quick read - but not up to his standard
Product review: If I bought this book off the paperback rack to read at the beach, I'd be pleased. It was a quick read with a surprise ending. However, Patterson's attempt to get inside the mind of a woman and her group of female friends left something to be desired. The mystery plot was intertwined with the quickly developing friendship of four women and it was a lame attempt at best. I had to often suspend my disbelief that people make lifetime friendships within the space of a week or two, or even after one meeting. Some men, i.e. Memoirs of a Geisha, can get write well in the female 1st person, Patterson needs more practice.
