Hidden by James O. Born, James Patterson

Another fast paced BookShots! Mitchum's 14 year-old cousin, Bailey Mae, has disappeared. Mitchum's search for her leads to a hidden camp where several people are held prisoner. Mitchum's unlikely helper in this search is his drug dealing brother. This is the first in the series with Mitchum as the main character, also known as the unofficial town private detective.

Eeeek. Was hopefully for this book due to JP but it felt so incomplete. I know it's a short story but seems poorly done.

This was a short novel with under 120 pages. I could have finished it in a day but took me a while to get into the book. The main character is an “unofficial” private investigator looking for his missing cousin. The storyline I was confused by and didn’t understand the plot but I did enjoy it. There was one death that didn’t really make sense and there was not closer at the end of it. I am unsure if it will continue on in the next book and if he investigates it.

Overall it is a good book with some strong language and scenes of violence.

Very good! Left off on a bit of a cliffhanger...

I have never read a James Patterson so I thought I would give a very short one a try. There is no need to ever read a longer one.

A Goodreads' friend suggest that I read some of James Patterson's shorts since they are a good way to get into his writing. I haven't read much by him, but I would love to start reading him more frequently.

The main character, Mitchum's 14-year-old cousin is abducted. Now he needs to track her down and figure out what happened.

This was a novel that I was able to finish within hours. I enjoyed it and plan on reading the second book to this.
