This novel was written by James Patterson and Maxine Paetro. More books in this series are to follow.[4][5] PlotThis book has several plots. The most important one involves Jack Morgan, the owner of Private, a private investigation company started by his father. Morgan comes back from a trip to find a former girlfriend murdered in his bed. Morgan is the number one suspect of this murder and has to clear himself of it or go to a lengthy trial. Morgan also owes a favor to a mobster, a favor he does not want to honor but is in no position to refuse. A third plot is the disappearance of a film star who is already in much legal trouble. Finally, Private seeks to solve a series of hotel murders that are the work of a serial killer. ReviewsThis book received at least three professional reviews, one of them favorable and two of them unfavorable. Joe Hartlaub of Bookreporter said in a very positive review, "Patterson and Paetro’s concept and execution for PRIVATE: #1 SUSPECT is flawless."[6] A very negative review appeared in University of California Highlander, a college newspaper. The reviewer said, "If you’re really interested in the frustrating adventures of Jack Morgan and company, look for “#1 Suspect” in its future destination: at the bottom of a dollar store bookshelf, next to the book lights."[7] The Publishers Weekly website, in another negative review, said, "Unrelated subplots, including a serial killer who leaves his victims in different locations of a hotel chain, serve only to add to the book’s length. An evil identical twin doesn’t help with plausibility."[8] References1. ^This is the release date for the hardcover edition.
