The Beach House

Product Information

Now I appreciate that for those of you who have stayed with me this far, there's nothing too surprising about this romantic development.

In the court of public opinion, unjustified deaths are reconciled and the rich guys are found guilty as sin.Jack brings int he help of his grandfather, a private eye with who he starts to build a relationship, and a small group of locals to try and prove that Peter was in fact murdered and that there is a major cover-up with a surprising and disturbing sexual twist. Anyway I was going to the beach so I thought it appropriate to take this book Beach House with me and I absolutely love James P and murder mystery books.

Motivated by a hundred forms of grief, Jack rallies his hometown friends to help him find the truth of Peter's death-no matter how rich or corrupt the people who stand in their way. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. It may be formulaic, but the perspective from which it's told held my attention so raptly that I couldn't put the book down. By the end, fans may start to miss Alex Cross, whose presence could have given this flyaway story some weight. Jack feels his brother could never have drowned because he was a strong swimmer and knew the Atlantic since childhood.As he narrates, the reader grows closer and closer to him, almost to the point where we're so associated with James that we are as hard-pressed to uncover the truth as the characters in the story are.

Patterson thriller from over 10 years ago… and it's of his notable page turning variety, a law graduate's brother is killed on a beach and then there's a massive cover up by the social elite and the cops. And even though the "whodunnit" part of the novel is solved early on, James' solution is much more entertaining. Why I have this opinion is because the society already has a stigmatized view that having a close acquaintance with the patients may result in becoming a patient ourselves. For instance, you would get to a particularly interesting part in the story, something shocking would happen, and then the chapter would end -- the break in text worked as a tension builder.It is forbidden to copy anything for publication elsewhere without written permission from the copyright holder. A vigilante pipe-dream topped off by toothlessly shocking revelations about characters even less substantial than the celebrity cameos: Dominick Dunne, Latrell Sprewell, Geraldo Rivera, and Billy “Mudman” Simon. His brother would never have committed suicide, particularly since the body looks like Peter was beaten to death.

When I first read the title of this book, the first thought that crossed my mind, was “I should have read this book next summer, not now. With *The Beach House*, I found it to be interesting how fast you can read through a book with small chapters. The backlash creates a determination to punish evil and the investigation continues as the balance swings back and forth between the bad guys and the good guys.BookBrowse seeks out and recommends the best in contemporary fiction and nonfiction—books that not only engage and entertain but also deepen our understanding of ourselves and the world around us. To my knowledge, Patterson has never written Mitchner-length chapters, but he at least used them to build suspense. The fact of the matter is, The Beach House is an excellent novel full of intrigue, emotion, and mystery.
