James Patterson, part 1

I just finished listening to 6th Target by James Patterson and Maxine Paetro. This is the sixth in the Women's Murger Club series. If you like Patterson, especially the Alex Cross series, and/or the previous 5 in this series, you should enjoy this as well. It is typically of Patterson's books, with its short, fast reading chapters. I listened to the story and Carolyn McCormick does a nice job with the narration, as she has with the previous 3 titles.

This book contained involved solving 3 separate crimes, which I don't remember the other books doing. It lent a realism to the work, since I'm sure police officers are involved in multiple cases at a time.

There didn't seem to be as much interaction between the members of the club in this book and I missed the banter of the group as they tried to solve the crimes. Each woman seemed to be indepently occupied, although in a related way, in this book.

Otherwise, it was an enjoyable thriller.
