Gone
Book - 2013
"Manuel Perrine doesn't fear anyone or anything. A charismatic and ruthless leader, Perrine slaughters rivals as effortlessly as he wears his trademark white linen suit. Detective Michael Bennett once managed to put Perrine behind bars, the only official in the US ever to accomplish that. But now Perrine is out, and he has sworn to find and kill Bennett and everyone dear to him. Detective Bennett, along with his ten adopted children, their nanny, and his grandfather, are hidden safely on a rural California farm, with guards courtesy of the FBI's witness protection program. Perrine begins to embark on an escalating series of assassinations across the country, killings whose brazenness and audacity bring into question the possibility of safety and law in the US. The FBI has no choice but to ask Detective Bennett to risk it all in Perrine's war on America. With explosive action and fierce villainy that rivals James Bond movies at their best, GONE is the next astounding novel by James Patterson"--Provided by publisher.

Add a CommentForced myself to read 230 pages. Lots and lots of filler with the occasional bit of action. Definitely not recommended, although there are some good reviews.
It was ok but not as good as some of his others.
Great book, would not recommend for anyone who does not like a good read
Excellent as always, definitely a page turner by midway through the book.
I prefer the Michael Bennett series over the Alex Cross series. I have read every single book Mr. Patterson has written. Quick read, however this title was not really as good as the others in the series.
Quick enjoyable read. I appreciated that there was less sappiness about the family and more seriousness to this novel than previous ones in the Bennett series.
The best one yet in this series.
Another great James Patterson read about Michael Bennett, his family, and his search for a drug kinpin. Action packed from beginning to end.
Enjoyed reading it! A bit lengthy but in all a good read!
Enjoyed the book! I like Bennett and his entire family. It picked up especially in the chase (every Patterson book has a chase lol). Fast beginning, medium paced middle, fast end.
