Mistress by James Patterson

The first chapter in this book follows a seemingly anonymous narrator as he enters someone's home and plants a recording device.  The idea alone is terrifying.  Despite the hints that this may not be a faultless human being, the reader begins to wonder if their own homes are as readily accessible as this one.  It is a start that makes your heartbeat quicken.

Then, in the earliest twist I can remember, the book flips completely on its side.  Clearly, you have entered the world where James Patterson makes the rules.

Mistress is fast and action packed almost to the last page.  Benjamin, our main character, has been slammed into the middle of a conspiracy mystery that threatens to ruin his life if he cannot solve it.  Figure out the mystery if you can!

4 smiles and a wink for another great Patterson stand alone tale.
