About this ebook
Europe is stunning in the summer . . . but NYPD detective Jacob Kanon isn't there for the beauty. He's on a mission: to track down his daughter's killer.
NYPD detective Jacob Kanon is on a tour of Europe's most gorgeous cities. But the sights aren't what draw him-he sees each museum, each cathedral, and each cafe through the eyes of his daughter's killer.
Kanon's daughter, Kimmy, and her boyfriend were murdered while on vacation in Rome. Since then, young couples in Paris, Copenhagen, Frankfurt, and Stockholm have been found dead. Little connects the murders, other than a postcard to the local newspaper that precedes each new victim.
Now Kanon teams up with the Swedish reporter, Dessie Larsson, who has just received a postcard in Stockholm-and they think they know where the next victims will be. With relentless twists and unstoppable action, The Postcard Killers may be James Patterson's most vivid and compelling thriller yet.

James Patterson, along with Liza Marklund, had my heart itching for more. With every page turn came thrilling moments only a true genius is capable of producing. I LOVE THIS BOOK, exactly my type. This shows the true literary genius of both authors. Just a fantastic story, from the very prologue, until the end of the book. If I could, I would tell the authors to write this in a longer series. It had me come back and read it once again. And it was even better the second time reading the book.Very FANTASTIC!

Jeremy, don't know if you were already a fan of James Patterson, but for the most part his books all almost all quick reads. This is why I love him. I have multiple disabilities, including vision loss and learning disabilities. Patterson is the only author that I can read in a timely manner. Many authors have 20 page chapters that take forever. Patterson seldom uses more than 3 pages a chapter. Love him 4ever!!! :-)
