Murder Games by James Patterson

Dr. Dylan Reinhart wrote the book on criminal behavior. Literally--he's a renowned, bestselling Ivy League expert on the subject. When a copy of his book turns up at a gruesome murder scene--along with a threatening message from the killer--it looks like someone has been taking notes.

I liked this character. Somehow the premise felt a little overdone, which doesn't make sense because I can't pinpoint where I may have read a similar story. The ending felt a little wrapped-in-a-bow for me. Granted, you all know I'm not a fan of that sort of ending. I like things messy and life-like. 

I ended up giving this book three smiles. It's still good, but nothing I'd rush out to read.
