At the core of Don’t Look Twice lies an interesting mystery: A man is shot dead in a wild shooting in the affluent suburb of Greenwich, Connecticut. Detective Ty Hauck is there when it happens and witnesses the murder. At first it seems like a random shooting. But then, as Hauck takes a closer look, it becomes more complicated. Much more complicated. It turns out that the victim of the shooting was a federal prosecutor, David Sanger. Why was he killed? Was it really random? Or was he working with a sensitive case?
As Ty Hauck digs deeper and deeper into the case, it gets more and more complicated. He uncovers a trail that leads to the gambling industry and into very dangerous territories. As the death toll rises, Hauck is warned to back away from the case. And when that doesn’t work, his house is blown apart by a bomb. But Hauck is nothing if not persistent and stubborn.
Andrew Gross – who has written several books with James Patterson and writes in the Patterson-style – is a good writer and plotter. The characterizations are relatively good – but still a little flat and stereotypical. The story moves fast and there is lots and lots of action. Don’t Look Twice tells an interesting and entertaining story of murder, greed, and corruption. If you like to read James Patterson, it’s well worth a try.
