Description
When a serial killer crashes Detective Michael Bennett's wedding, he and his new partner uncover a gruesome string of cold-case homicides across the country.
Weeks before NYPD Detective Michael Bennett is to marry his longtime love, Mary Catherine, an assassin announces his presence in the city with a string of grisly murders. Each victim is a young woman. And each has been killed in a manner as precise as it was gruesome.
Tasked with working alongside the FBI, Bennett and his gung-ho new partner uncover multiple cold-case homicides across the country that fit the same distinctive pattern—proving the perpetrator they seek is as experienced at ending lives as he is at evading detection.
Bennett promises Mary Catherine that the case won't affect their upcoming wedding. But as Bennett prepares to make a lifetime commitment, the killer has a lethal vow of his own to fulfill.

4By AnemonestarA great book to read. You will not want to put it down,Disappointing
1By CelveritasI had not read James Patterson before and, even though I made it to the end, I won’t be reading any more of this type of low level almost monosyllabic basic and frequently cringeworthy prose. It’s rare that I get through any book and not have to look up a single word or event or location or anything. Totally uninspiring. I was intrigued by the title, but discovered that it was completely irrelevant to the plot, which was simple and classic B movie material.Waste of timr
