      Als Rowan tweeënhalf jaar is, wordt de diagnose gesteld dat hij autistisch is. De wereld van zijn vader Rupert Isaacson en zijn moeder Kristin stort in. Rowan lijdt aan spastische aanvallen en is onhandelbaar. Binnen korte tijd verliezen de ouders al het contact met hem. Op een dag kruipt Rowan tijdens een wandeling door een afrastering. Lachend laat hij zich op zijn rug op de grond vallen, pal voor een grote merrie. Rupert weet als paardentrainer dat de situatie levensgevaarlijk is: één verkeerde beweging kan de merrie doen schrikken en Rowan wordt vertrapt. Wat er dan gebeurt is even bijzonder als ongelooflijk.

      Joe Goffman's sizzling first novel - and a blockbuster on screen - has savaged almost every reputation in Bush Falls. Having turned his back firmly on the town he left seventeen years ago, the indignant cries of former neighbours, friends and family members - not to mention the class action slander suit - have never fazed Joe in the least. Until now. A family emergency summons him back to Bush Falls, where, mere minute after his arrival, he falls victim to the wrath of the townsfolk: milk-shakes thrown in his face, copies of his novel pelting his house, violent threats to blow up his shiny new Mercedes. But the more Bush Falls resents Joe, the more it becomes obvious that Joe desperately needs Bush Falls. As he walks along the familiar streets, memories return that he had long ago thought purged by his writing. One year especially, 1986, when Joe lost his best friend and his innocence to passion, betrayal and tragedy, haunts hm with a vengeance. Now, almost two decades later, Joe has to face his past without resorting to his pen. And with the help of some very old friends, he might just be able to learn something... if he manages to survive his homecoming.

      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 fiance were murdered while on holiday in Rome. Since then, young couples in Madrid, Salzburg, Athens and Paris 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 logic and unstoppable action, Postcard Killers may be James Patterson's most vivid and compelling thriller yet.
