Publisher's Summary
Police officers shot
Detective 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 10 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, Michael Bennett is James Patterson at his most personal and most thrilling best.

upsetting plot twist
I hope it gets better in the sequel , the narration was delivered wonderfully it just was such a sad story I don't like how Mary Katheryn was so quick to toss Mike aside even after he was loyal to her and faithful. so he was a little slow learning the importance of scheduling time for her and him. That's all it boiled down to. the author, made me feel like she was really into him as he obviously loves her.

Bogus "ending".
What would have made I, Michael Bennett better?
First, the title had nothing to do with the story. No relevance. The story itself was a better than average one, but only gets one star because of the "ending"...seriously guys? I can't recommend this one, although I enjoy the Michael Bennett series, because there were too many dangling story lines, and they neglected to finish the book. I thought that my ipod had misfired. If this is a set-up for the next in the series, it's really a cheap way to sell a book.
Has I, Michael Bennett turned you off from other books in this genre?
In the series, yes.
Did Bobby Cannavale and Jay Snyder do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?
Yes

Where is the rest of the story?
Not only is this a lazy and predictable storyline but it leaves the reader feeling cheated. The climax? What climax. A cynical summer book from a big brand author to keep the factory going. When will I learn...

Up in the air !
If you want to listen to a book that ends with no resolution then this is the book for you.
If you want to listen to a book that actually has a resolution and you aren't left hanging at the end then don't buy this book. It was a great story until the end when it stopped. Seriously doesn't James Patterson have enough money (he writes and co-writes so many books I can't count them)? Instead he leaves this book (in my opinion) in the middle. This book could have been so good if he finished it and resolved the final showdown instead of waiting and making people buy another one to see what happens to Michael Bennett. I for one am done with James Patterson.

Disappointing
Would you try another book from James Patterson and Michael Ledwidge and/or Bobby Cannavale and Jay Snyder ?
Yes, loved all the others, this one was just weak, made detectives seem clueless. Felt like I was watching a clueless character in an bad 1980's horror film. The story line was great but the good guys just made way too many mistakes. And then the book just stopped.
What could James Patterson and Michael Ledwidge have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Better ending. Smarter task force.

Tired of James Patterson's non-writing
Love the Michael Bennett character and relationships, but the story line in this one was just way too wild. And the non-ending didn't leave me anxiously waiting for the next half-written book by him and/or his "collaborators", it ticked me off.

The Best Michael Bennett Yet
Michael Bennett is asked to lead the capture of a drug lord who is in New York for a very special event. The plans to capture him quickly change. Michael Bennett is in a bad place with this drug lord's very unique forms of terror that he unleashes on the police.
Some very interesting things happen in this book that will surprise and certainly not delight. While Michael Bennett always keeps the book from going 'too dark', this is a very dark book and I believe the best Michael Bennett so far.
The narration is perfect, the characters are well developed and the family is still front and center, each playing a unique role in the plot.
I have no idea why the book's tagline is "Move Over Alex Cross" but will ignore that since it was so well done.

James Patterson has redeemed himself!
What did you love best about I, Michael Bennett?
The writing and story was tight. Unlike some of his recent collaborations, it was seamless. This story was exciting, more exciting, and very exciting to the very end! I look forward to the next Michael Bennett story, #6!
Who was your favorite character and why?
Michael Bennett. He is vulnerable.
Which scene was your favorite?
No comment. Don't want to give the story away!
Any additional comments?
I hope James Patterson will be collaborating with Michael Ledwidge for the next book in this series. This story had great writing, fast action, lots of suspensel, and a terrific ending.

Same Old, Same Old...but unfinished.
Bennett gets knocked around. His family becomes endangered. He flirts with another officer or agent. His Nannie gets irritated. And to top it all off, this one leaves us with a psychopath still on the loose and out to get Bennett.
A minor irritant, but the author refers to wines, literature, hotels, food and over the top clothing as if cops and other average people can relate to these things and their astronomic prices. Reminds me of the nouveau riche trying to impress people with their new found ability to afford the excesses. Falls in the category of sophomoric writing where one's sleeve gets in the way as one writes due to the writer wearing everything on his or her sleeve.
I'm curious, does this come from Patterson or Ledwidge?
