Latest James Patterson novel set in Sydney


Private Sydney
by James Patterson & Kathryn Fox
Century -$37.00

The world's best-selling thriller writer teams up with one of Australia's best-selling crime writers for the latest action-packed instalment of the PRIVATE series.

Even for Private Investigations, the world's top detective agency, it's tough to find a man who doesn't exist . . .

Craig Gisto has promised Eliza Moss that his elite team at 
Private Sydney will investigate the disappearance of her father. After all, as the CEO of a high-profile research company, Eric Moss shouldn't be difficult to find. 

Except it's not just the man who's gone missing, all evidence he ever existed has vanished too. And there are powerful figures pulling the strings who want Moss to stay ‘lost'. 

But when a woman is found brutally murdered and a baby is missing, Private are suddenly drawn into another frantic search. And this is a case Craig has to throw everything into, because he may well be responsible for sending the killer straight to the victim's door
