Publisher Description
In this Floridian thriller from the world's #1 bestselling author, Palm Beach doesn’t just have billionaires, yachts, and private planes—it also has the best murder plots money can buy.
The Palm Beach Murders (previously published as Let's Play Make-Believe): Both survivors of the divorce wars, Christy and Martin don't believe in love at first sight and certainly not on a first date. But from the instant they lock eyes, life becomes a sexy, romantic dream come true. That is, until they start playing a strangely intense game of make-believe—a game that's about to go too far. (with James O. Born)
Nooners: Everyone who knows Tim says he's a good guy. But the popular advertising exec has a problem: a lot of the people who know him are getting murdered. And by the time he figures out why, Tim won't feel so good anymore. (with Tim Arnold)
Stingrays: When a teenager goes missing on a Caribbean beach, the local police are baffled. It's up to the Stingrays, a world class team that solves the unsolvable, to unearth the truth: a truth that no one will believe. (with Duane Swierczynski)
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Settle in for one killer vacation read. These three novellas by thriller master James Patterson will transport you to sunny locales where murder is the last thing anyone’s thinking about—except maybe the killers. In the title story, two newly single Palm Beach residents start a wild, whirlwind romance that puts them on a collision course with death. In “Stingrays,” a beautiful prep-school student goes missing after a private beach party, sending a team of quirky investigators on a mission to find her. “Nooners” shifts the setting to New York’s high society, where the colleagues of a top-tier ad man start turning up dead. Each tale showcases Patterson’s knack for naturalistic dialogue and his talent for mixing suspense and interpersonal drama. And because each novella has a different co-author, every story here has a unique feel.
