““Private
Berlin” is another story of the investigative
firm Private, owned by Jack Morgan, an American. Private
has offices all over the world. This is our first visit
to the Berlin office, and I hope it is not our last.
The story begins when top Private investigator Chris
Schneider went to a place called “The Slaughterhouse,
just outside of Berlin. Then, he went missing.
Mattie Engel, another top investigator at Private and
Chris’ ex-fiancée, knew that Chris would
never leave in the middle of an investigation, and he
was working on three different cases. He would never
go anywhere without checking in with Private, but they
hadn’t heard from him in three days. Chris was
in trouble and there was only one way to find him. Private
had a locator chip implanted, if the employee wanted
it. Chris had the chip implanted.
They followed the signal to The Slaughterhouse. The
signal showed movement, so Mattie, who still loved Chris,
was excited. But when they entered the building, they
didn’t see anyone. They told the tracker, who
told Mattie that Chris was in front of her. Her flashlight
showed a rat with the chip in its mouth. Chris was still
missing.
“Private Berlin” is one of James Patterson’s
best books ever. I usually nap on rainy days, but this
book kept me wide awake. I did not want to put it down
for any reason!
The tension in this thrill keeps rising. The characters,
living, breathing human beings, though one’s so
evil that all semblance to a human is gone save for
looks, chase a killer all over Berlin and the surrounding
area. The plot, a living thing, keeps growing and changing.
Read by January LaVoy and Ari Fliakos, the story brings
the madness of the predator against the intelligence
of a survivor. Listen to this book! You’ll never
regret it.
