BOOK REPORT......

The Murder House - James Patterson










Description(Amazon)
Trying to escape her troubled past and rehabilitate a career on the rocks, former New York City cop Jenna Murphy hardly expects her lush and wealthy surroundings to be a hotbed of grisly depravity. But when a Hollywood power broker and his mistress are found dead in the abandoned Murder House, the gruesome crime scene rivals anything Jenna experienced in Manhattan. And what at first seems like an open and shut case turns out to have as many shocking secrets as the Murder House itself, as Jenna quickly realizes that the mansion's history is much darker than even the town's most salacious gossips could have imagined.

As more bodies surface, and the secret that Jenna has tried desperately to escape closes in on her, she must risk her own life to expose the truth-before the Murder House claims another victim.

MY THOUGHTS:  This is an awesome book if you like murder mysteries.  I didn't know for sure who the murderer was until the last few pages...Full of likable characters and several bad guys.  The main character, Jenna Murphy is headed back to her home town to work on the police force there.  Her uncle is the chief of police.  But Jenna walks right into a cold case that has come back to life.  It happened at The Murder House.  Or better known a 7 Ocean View Road.  Can Jenna find out who's doing this?  Will she get caught by the murderer?   I give this book 5.....
