Query: Patterson is losing it. Hopefully regains it next time.

This book in hardback is not worth the hard cash. In paperback, it probably is. If "When the Wind Blows" was 1 star, this has to be at least better, but not by much. There is no suspense, intrigue and mystery, as in "Cat and Mouse" and "Jack and Jill." The story is so-so, not particularly creative or innovative. The characters are almost typical, and starting to wear thin and, in retrospect, become boring. Perhaps it's time to wrap up these characters, adopt a bit more hard-core approach, and less long-winded "sappy" style.
