Sinossi
New York, oggi. Matthew Bannon ne era sicuro: non sarebbe mai diventato ricco. Lui, studente di Belle Arti, avrebbe trascorso la sua vita come un artista squattrinato in un loft imbrattato di pittura, se quella sera non si fosse trovato alla Grand Central Station. Una sparatoria, una scia di sangue, un uomo a terra, esanime, davanti a una fila di armadietti, e dentro uno di questi, spalancato… una borsa zeppa di diamanti, del valore di milioni e milioni di dollari. Progetti e sogni da condividere con Katherine, la sua fidanzata, affollano la mente di Matthew, finché non si rende conto di essere braccato. Perché dietro a quel prezioso bottino c’è un traffico illecito di diamanti controllato dalla mafia russa. La vita di Matthew è appesa a un filo: sulle sue tracce, ingaggiato dai russi, il Fantasma, il killer che ha freddato l’uomo alla stazione. Ma il Fantasma non sa che qualcuno lo sta cercando e vuole farlo sparire per sempre…

Recensioni
Formulaic, but as ever a good page turner. A botched assassination pulls 30-year old art student and his art professor into a world of assassins, manhunts, crooked cops, death and a European tour! 6 out of 12, Three Star read. 2013 read
This book has made me reconsider a lot of things in my life. First of all, it has made me look at all of the other books that I have given a one-star rating too. Yeah, The Shack was bad, but was it THIS bad? It has also made me think of how many people might be out there reading books like this, or a Leggi tutto
A poor art student, Matthew Bannon, stumbles on a stash of stolen diamonds worth millions belonging to a Russian syndicate. In possession of the gleaming gems at the time is a dealer named Walter Zelvas who is slain inside New York’s Grand Central Terminal leading to Bannon discovering (and stealing Leggi tutto
Kill Me If You Can is a fast paced action thriller which leaves little time for the reader to catch their breath. Each scene is a near shot of adrenaline as authors Patterson and Marshall tell a deep and engrossing story encompassing assassins, art students, blood diamonds, and the Russian Mafia. Th Leggi tutto
This book is filled with every cliche I could possibly think of - Russian mobsters, "oo-rah" Marine buddies, cougar professor girlfriends, German "ice-queen" former model turned assassin, crooked cops, you name it. The descriptions of sex between Matthew and his professor girlfriend were gratuitous
Pengungkapan twist pada bab 53 membuat saya pengin bersumpah serapah tanpa henti. "Kuraj! Kuraj! Ternyata......................." Seru sih bukunya. Ala-ala film action Hollywood yang bertema perburuan, kejar-kejaran: membunuh atau dibunuh. (Sayangnya saya nggak bisa mengingat satu judul pun sebagai pe Leggi tutto
I really liked this book. It was fast paced and action packed. Which is exactly how I love my thrillers.
My second of Patterson's reads. Well i will start this review by saying that he is rapidly becoming one of my top 5 favorite authors of all time! I love his style of writing and the fact that he has what i like to call 'quick chapters' just a little over 100 in this short read. In this Patterson tal Leggi tutto
I can normally finish a James Patterson book in a day, but this one didn't grab me at all, and I took nearly a week to read it. Two stars.
