A town in the Hamptons where the rich play is a perfect backdrop for a murder mystery.
Jenna leaves her job with the NYPD under a cloud and moves there where her uncle the police chief has offered her a job. It may not be the best move for her, when she was little she disappeared and begins having nightmares about it. Add in several gruesome murders and a house know as the murder house and you have a good story. I didn't like the going back and forth in time though, it disrupted the flow of the story for me. This a book I had autographed by James Patterson

JAMES PATTERSON BOOK SIGNING AT THE VERO BEACH BOOK CENTER
Sunday November 8, 2015 I was lucky to attend a book signing by James Patterson at the Vero Beach Book Center. James answered questions for about 45 minutes and then signed books. He was funny and very nice taking lots of time to answer all questions. The Vero Beach Book Center is very nice, lots of books and children's toys. If you are ever in the area, I recommend this store. I bought and had autographed The Murder House as well as Alert a Michael Bennett Novel. I am reading the Murder House now, review to follow shortly.

CALICO JOE by John Grisham
Do you love baseball? I practically grew up on a baseball field as my brother played and our dad coached the team.
This is the story of two players, told by the son of one. Paul's father Warren was a pitcher for the NY Mets and Paul lived and breathed baseball. His dad however was absent most of the time and when home tended toward drinking and abuse if the family. Paul rarely got to talk baseball with his dad or even have a game of catch. Joe was a minor league player who was moved up to the Chicago Cubs, where he went about breaking lots of records. Until the fateful day he came up to bat against Warren.
Both lives will be shattered. What will happen?
