The "thrilling" #1 New York Times and USA Today bestseller (Karin Slaughter): when three bodies are found in a Chicago bedroom, a black book goes missing . . . and the city has never been more dangerous.
Billy Harney was born to be a cop. As the son of Chicago's chief of detectives with a twin sister on the force, Billy plays it by the book. Teaming up with his adrenaline-junkie partner, Detective Kate Fenton, there's nothing he wouldn't sacrifice for his job. Enter Amy Lentini, a hard-charging assistant attorney hell-bent on making a name for herself who suspects Billy isn't the cop he claims to be. They're about to be linked by more than their careers.
A horrifying murder leads investigators to an unexpected address-an exclusive brothel that caters to Chicago's most powerful citizens. There's plenty of incriminating evidence on the scene, but what matters most is what's missing: the madam's black book. Now with shock waves rippling through the city's elite, everyone's desperate to find it.
As Chicago's elite scramble to get their hands on the elusive black book, no one's motives can be trusted. An ingenious, inventive thriller about power, corruption, and the secrets that can destroy a city, The Black Book is James Patterson at his page-turning best.

Great read!. One of his best book! I was completely surprised by the ending not being able to figure out the outcome prior to it being presented to me!

Yhhgff. Great read

Leslie Raye

Fantastic. Awesome read! Couldn't put it down and is Definitely a page turner. Never saw the plot twist coming. Another awesome book from one of my favorite authors.

Rosimom

Black Book. Could have been a good if not for constant use of the F word. Garbage . I quit reading!

Ray@Princeton

Great story. Nice plot and well written.

Leinani69

Loved it!!. I finished reading this book in 28 hours! I literally had my husband take over a wife/mother's responsibility because I was so engrossed reading this book. Could not put it down. It's the best book I've read thus far by Patterson. A must have!!

Lenguass

Intriguing twists and turn. Great story ...suspenseful, fun, very engaging.

Scass2

Excellent read. This book was hard to put down. I read it in 4 days when I had many other things to do. Great story with a twist in the end

Halsterx

Black Book. 5/5 stars. Very entertaining. Interesting plot, characters and story telling angle. Several unexpected twists. I have read ALOT of mystery crime novels and rarely give out 5 stars. Hal

David Ellis is a better author than James Patterson. Invisible, The Murder House, and now The Black Book. Whenever David Ellis writes for James, the novels are always so much more better than your average Patterson branded book. I highly recommend it.

Belbel30

Wow!!!. I have every one of James Patterson's books and this is by far one of, if not the best of them all. Such a great read!!!

Bekah0725

Good read. I enjoyed this book. Easy to read and entertaining. Hell of a twist.

SuperOrangeade

The Black Book. I could not put this book down. It’s 2:09 am and I just finished it. I need sleep!

Love this book!. Couldn't put this one down. I thought it was well written and kept my interest all the way through.

Wanda Diane

BLACK BOOK. This is a great read! You will NOT figure out the ending... won't even come close! One of James Patterson's best, I think.

Ray7709

Great Book!. This is one of the best books that Patterson and co-author of the week has written. Great read. You will enjoy this one.

Stone crap

The Black Book. Typical...

JRE44140

"The Black Book" Best Novel Ever. Wow. Im guessing that I have read more Fiction Mystery Books than most people. With that in mind, I have to say that "The Black Book" is in the Top 3 if not the best book I've read. Thank you James Patterson, Thank you!!! It goes without saying there aren't enough stars to show how highly I feel about this work & how strongly I recommend it.

Deishalarae

Awesome. Loveee

Bob852201

Ellis is good!. The Black Book is well worth the time to read. I doubt Patterson wrote a single word of the story. Take a shot!

Agentsparky

Confusing. Over-plotted. Everything has to fall into place to make this plot work. It crosses and recrosses time switching from past to present with convenient memory lapses by the protagonists. Lots of characters but most of them just a cardboard facade (or two). At the end, most of the villains punished but one cared little about them or the protagonist. Save yourself the money and time.

Dbmsjgt

One of the best. This book kept me guessing up until the end. Just when you thought you knew “who done it” it proved you wrong.

Mj2U

Great book. Starts quickly...couldn't put it down...Must read... Enjoyed every moment of it!

CannetteW

Black Book. I kept guessing the ending and I was wrong. Great read!!!!

Sarasota Sweetie

Page Turner. I think this is the best most thrilling book James Patterson has written. Well done.

Rlamont

No wonder James Patterson is the best fiction writer of all times. The Black Book is awesome, I don’t know how he does it but when I grow up I want to write like James Patterson...end of story!!!

Bronzbck1

Not good. I'm a Patterson fan but this one is bad. Good characters but takes forever to get to a a predictable ending

Macy41

WOW!!!!. Could not put this book down!!! One of the best he’s ever written!!

Chus729

The Black Book. I've been reading James Patterson books forever and I think this book is one of, if not, the best I have read. Read thru the night and couldn't put down until I finished. I thought I knew how it ended and was so wrong. Loved it.

Huskysmom

Black Book. Great book! Exciting with lots of curve balls! Loved it!

Janine H.

Relatable. First book I've read where I actually giggled out loud because of the jokes made by the characters in this book!

Sharp Samuray

Excellent Book!. Well written, Engaging characters, great story. A must read if you like suspenseful thrillers.

Rick1939

Black Book. Absolutely sick. Last Paterson book I will read.

Gbr1294587

Black book. Thoroughly enjoyed this book! It is well written, has a great steady pace of thrill, and keeps you guessing. I was constantly looking for more precious time to read it longer but savoring it was just as satisfying. I hope to find another Patterson book with the same reward for my time as he has always been a favorite of mine.

Legaliis

Fast, Hard Hitting BUT Surprise, Surprise!. Another Patterson best. The reading chapters are fast so they tend to keep one in suspense. As usual there are little twists and turns but a huge finish that I, frankly, hadn’t seen coming.

Wallove1

Bond guys are. Vgg Gthe. Y v g yyvv yyv very very good

A great book. This book is awesome really, the events were unexpected and mysterious completely, it attracts the reader and it makes the reader feel as he/ she lives within the events.

PattieWagon

The Black Book. Fast paced, intriguing and the “Past/Present” flashes are weaved in very well. Never saw the ending coming but that is the sign of a good story. Well done, gentlemen. We can always count on James Patterson to give us a great read.

Telegraph. Awful writing full of the worst metaphors throughout. A bit like a really bad detective movie from the 50's. The plot was ridiculous and the bi reveal telegraphed many times from the start. Not worth it.

Sun2018@

Awesome read. Great book. Suspenseful twists n turns. 👍🏼
