Query: A Predictable "Soap Opera"

I was very disappointed in this Patterson novel. I found it predictable, contrived, and poorly written (How many times does Suzanne say she is blushing, protesting her aversion to blushing?) I figured the "mystery" out as soon as I started reading Suzanne's words. Of course, she had died, probably along with the child. And how convenient that Katie is there to take Suzanne's place and to provide another child. What a happy ending! Sorry. I'll look forward to reading more of Patterson's real writing in his mysteries.
