Representaion Concering Books I, Michael Bennett (Michael Bennett #5)
Police officers shotDetective Michael Bennett arrests an infamous Mexican crime lord in a deadly chase that leaves Bennett's lifelong friend Hughie McDonough dead. From jail, the prisoner vows to rain epic violence down upon New York City-and to get revenge on Michael Bennett.
Judges murdered
To escape the chaos, Bennett takes his ten kids and their beautiful nanny, Mary Catherine, on a much-needed vacation to his family's cabin near Newburgh, New York. But instead of the calm and happy town he remembers from growing up, they step into a nightmare worse than they could have ever imagined. Newburgh is an inferno of warring gangs, and there's little the police-or Bennett-can do to keep the children safe.
Target: Michael Bennett
As violence overwhelms the state, Bennett is torn between protecting his hometown and saving New York City. A partner in his investigations, federal prosecutor Tara McLellan, brings him new weapons for the battle-and an attraction that endangers his relationship with Mary Catherine.
A no-holds-barred, pedal-to-the-floor, action-packed novel, I, Michael Bennett is James Patterson at his most personal and most thrilling best.

Having recently read Patterson's Merry Christmas Alex Cross and being extremely disappointed, I had high hopes that this book would be better, and back to the Patterson I've enjoyed so much in the past. I was bitterly disappointed.This book was spotty, poorly plotted, jumped all over the place and was a blatant 'buy the next book' vehicle. As I mentioned in my review of Merry Christmas, Alex Cross, Patterson seems to feel a need, suddenly, to proselytize. In Merry Christmas he refers constantly,As critics and readers have slammed most of James Patterson's recent novels, his Michael Bennett series, co-written with Michael Ledwidge, has maintained a level of quality and entertainment that reminds us why he is one of the bestselling authors of all time.Michael Bennett, a single father of 10, is used to being busy. Ever since he lost his wife to cancer, he has struggled to maintain both his family life and his job of solving high profile crimes for the New York City Police Department.
I happened to really have loved this book. Though I was let down by the ending as I felt like I was just left hanging....maybe it was written that way for the 5th book in the Michael Bennett series.Michael Bennett is NYPD and he has just arrested the infamous Mexican drug lord, Manuel "The Sun King' Perrine after watching his best friend being killed by this cartel.After Michael arrest Perrine, things start to go down hill for Michael. He takes his family and nanny, MC for a summer 'vacay' and
So I was given a ton of James Patterson books by a friend of a friend (I have the reputation of a booklover around here, not sure why lol). This was the first one I read. Eh.I will read at least two more. If they are as boring and predictable a this one I will hand them off over to my used bookstore.
By far the best Michael Bennett book since the character premiered on the scene. Patterson and Ledwidge present an excellent novel with two strong major plotlines, sometimes intersecting, but also able to survive on their own. With much action, character development, and drama, the authors inject new life into this the 'third worthwhile' Patterson series, where the NYT best-selling author has begun major flops penning one-offs. If the reader is a follower of the series, they will not be
Shameless money grab!I have heard about issues with the ending of this book. I thought maybe there were some loose ends or that there was something to look forward for the next book. Sadly, the problems are much, much worse than that. Basically we get half a book, it's almost as if once the authors built up the story they decided to stop there and continue in the next episode. I would almost understand it if this was a gargantuan work and it had to be broken in two parts for publishing reasons,
Is it just me or is there a part of us that whenever we think of cops, detectives, ex-military in novels we conjure up a hot, rugged looking man as the main lead ? In I , Michael Bennett , we welcome back the NYPD Cop and Father of Ten Kids -all adopted Mr. Michael Bennett , along with his nanny Mary Catherine and Michael's father and father of their Catholic church Seamus Bennett. This time , Michael and his team have been tracking the movements of a major drug lord known as "The Sun King".
