About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin

For seven unsuspecting victims, death comes in the dark....

Once a luxurious getaway for a wealthy Southern family, the Summer House in rural Sullivan, Georgia, has long since fallen into disrepair and become a decaying rental property. But now it is also the scene of an horrific mass murder.

Shocking evidence points to four Army Rangers recently returned from Afghanistan. To ensure that justice is done, the Army sends Major Jeremiah Cook, a war veteran and former NYPD cop, to investigate. But Cook and his team are hindered at every turn by local law enforcement, who resists the Army's intrusion.

As Cook and his squad struggle to put together pieces of evidence that just won't fit, powerful forces rally against them to try to ensure that damning secrets die alongside the victims in the Summer House.

Predictable story

Even though I did enjoy this story as a light listening while travelling, within the first few chapters I had picked the "who dun-it" and why before I got halfway thru. It was good, not one of James Patterson's best but being a die hard JP fan did think it was a very predictable story.

Great story, great listen

Enjoyed this story a lot. A rollicking bit of fun and easy listening. Voices not too harsh on non American ear.
