About this ebook

From bestselling team James Patterson and Michael Ledwidge, Nina Bloom must confront the killer she thought she escaped forever to save the life of an innocent man.
The perfect life

A successful lawyer and loving mother, Nina Bloom would do anything to protect the life she's built in New York--including lying to everyone, even her daughter, about her past. But when an innocent man is framed for murder, she knows that she can't let him pay for the real killer's crimes.

The perfect lie

Nina's secret life began 18 years ago. She had looks to die for, a handsome police-officer husband, and a carefree life in Key West. When she learned she was pregnant with their first child, her happiness was almost overwhelming. But Nina's world is shattered when she unearths a terrible secret that causes her to run for her life and change her identity.

The perfect way to die

Now, years later, Nina risks everything she's earned to return to Florida and confront the murderous evil she fled. In a story of wrenching suspense, James Patterson gives us his most head-spinning, action-filled story yet--a Hitchcock-like blend of unquenchable drama and pleasure.

Ratings and reviews

My only complaint is that the climax of the book was so short & it came right at the end. Also, I would've liked a little bit of conversation btwn Emma & her mom after the climax part (don't wanna give anything away). Other than that, good story.

I do not know why people acclaim Patterson as an excellent writer. This book has a weak plot, two-dimensional characters, rollercoaster tones, and bad pacing. This book, just like many other Patterson books, is overrated. However, it is an easy and quick read.

All JAMES PATTERSON books are great reads, People can't seem to be able to stand it when they have to wait for his books. Magnificent and awesome.
