Sinossi
Tre rampolli di famiglie molto ricche di New York sono stati rapiti in rapida successione. I primi due sono stati già restituiti alle famiglie dal misterioso e spietato rapitore. Morti. Nessuna richiesta di riscatto è mai stata inviata ai parenti: l'assassino ha scritto solo messaggi confusi, inneggianti a una fumosa giustizia sociale, ma nessuno riesce a capire il suo piano. Un caso molto difficile, che richiede tutta l'abilità del detective Michael Bennett, e che mette a dura prova il suo cuore di padre vedovo: le vittime, tutte giovanissime, gli ricordano la sua numerosa famiglia composta da dieci amatissimi figli adottivi. Ma quando da Washington interviene anche l'FBI, nella persona dell'affascinante agente Emily Parker, a complicarsi non sono solo le indagini, ma anche la vita sentimentale di Bennett...

Recensioni
Another enjoyable episode in the Michael Bennett series. I think I am starting to like him even more than Alex Cross! As usual in a Patterson book the action is continuous and frequently way over the top but it makes for a great read. There is the usual high body count, a crazy serial killer and a bo Leggi tutto
I seriously love this Michael Bennett series. I dare even say more than I did the Woman’s Murder Club series. Bennett is a completely likable character and is easily endearing to readers. His love life is very odd right now but that just adds to the ongoing story. The plot was so engrossing that I c Leggi tutto
Worst Case by James Patterson and Michael Ledwidge is the third book in the Michael Bennett detective series. Readers will not have to read the other two books in the series to follow along as this New York Detective takes on a child kidnapper with a social agenda. Bennett is a single father with 10 Leggi tutto
First Read: One by one, children of New York's wealthiest are taken hostage. But the criminal doesn't crave money or power--he only wants to ask the elite if they know the price others pay for their luxurious lifestyles. And, if they don't, he corrects their ignorance by killing them. To Detective M Leggi tutto
I have read all of James Patterson’s books and to be frank they can be hit and miss. Sometimes he can produce fantastic stories but in recent years it seems like he churns out so many books that sometimes the story doesn’t have the author’s whole focus. The Michael Bennett series is co-written with Leggi tutto

I am slightly embarrassed to admit every time I read a James Patterson novel. I don't have any delusions that he's that great of a writer... or, for that matter, that he's even writing this stuff anymore. In fact, when I say I'm a fan of Patterson's Michael Bennett series, I should just edit that to Leggi tutto
Mind turning and full of religion. This story pulls Ash Wednesday into the plot and it’s an adventurous ride from start to finish. Detective Bennett never quits and uses all his skills to resolve the case. Francis Mooney is determined to alert the public about how the world is going to the garbage b Leggi tutto
James Patterson is one of my favorite authors, particularly when it comes to mystery & crime books. I am somewhat opposed to the whole "co-writing with other authors". I decided to research the reason for "co-writing" - I found this: "In September 2009, Patterson signed a book deal to write or co-wri Leggi tutto
Patterson's and Ledwidge's Worst Case tells a tale of Michael Bennett, a veteran cop, as he pursues a serial kidnapper/murderer who targets the children of the super-rich. And to be perfectly honest I the best way to describe Worst Case: Along Came a Spider, without the good bits. The plotline of Wor Leggi tutto
