I'm giving this book 4 stars because I love the Michael Bennett series and this was another great installment in it. That being said, I felt like the ending was super abrupt and just neatly fell together which is what I feel the last several books have been like.

I do legit feel sorry for one of the killers, what happened must have been awful, yet there's ways of getting revenge without wiping out a state.
I enjoyed the story but I didn't understand half of what the bombers were speaking about and it was a little jarring to be pulled in their perspectives when they make no kind of sense to me.

This plot was a little different for James Patterson, but the book was the same as usual. A very quick read. Short chapters, simple writing, total brain candy.

An action-packed fast-paced read! But WOW, the audiobook was something else! Full of special effects, this book comes to life in the audio version!  

This was a great story that left you on the edge of your seat the whole time!

My first book by James Patterson.

There's nothing new and special about the story, but the execution is great. I like the action and suspense. The flow of the story is smooth. I could finish this in a day if I'm not lazy.

I haven't read the other books in the series, but I still enjoyed this book. I think I would enjoy this more if I read the preceding installments.

I don’t normally mind books by James Patterson, however this is the third I’ve read from this series and I’m not sure I would bother any further. It almost feels like it’s been written for young adults, and I felt that this story line has been done to death. Terrorists bombing a city, threats of tsunamis it’s been in no end of films and so there wasn’t anything new here, and as with other Mike Bennet books the ending felt rushed.
