I think this book was given to me by my son after he had read it. It is a paperback copy in quite good condition.
I have read a couple of James Patterson's books before and really enjoyed them. This one didn't let me down either-it is a real page-turner with the plot twisting and turning right up to the end. I read it very quickly as I just needed to know what happened to the characters.
From the back cover:-
"A perfect family holiday turns into a life-or-death nightmare. As Peter Carlyle, a smooth-talking, super-successful lawyer, waved his family off on a sailing trip, all they had in mind was lying back and relaxing. But when a violent storm broke out, an explosion caused the boat to vanish without a trace and the family were lost, presumed dead."
But that's not how things turn out of course and you will be hard-pressed (in my opinion) to guess what's going to happen next in the short but compelling chapters of this book.
