i'm an old retired cop with family in NOLA
I retired a long time ago and I love police procedurals. I also love visiting New Orleans, which I've visited a lot, because I have family living there. I also love food. I broke my left leg and left arm, desperately seeking entertainment whilst recovering, I found this book and I thought I'd give it a try. I did not find this story believable. I did like the description of the sandwich 'The Chef' made for that woman he was lusting after. I stopped reading after he had been beaten by a man with a bat, shot at, chased by gang bangers AND the FBI.... and the ex-wife, oh please. I sustained injuries on the job, nothing like those described here, but I'm not buying this guy's recuperative powers. I enjoyed his description of cooking in his car, however. I didn't do too many stake outs but our biggest problem was bathroom breaks (as is true for most female law enforcement): where is a toilet and how do we get there, accomplish the goal and get back??? unless you are in love with this author i would suggest passing on by this one.

I didn't find the book very interesting till near the end. It dragged, had a lot of (I really didn't need to know ) stuffed words. It's easier to wade a river. Good plot saved it. The girl sure didnt.

I really wanted to like it but...
I was really looking forward to this book, pre order and all. I could not get into the characters. there was really no character development. the storyline was weak and I just could not relate to what was going on. I was born in New Orleans btw. The best part of the entire book was the narrator. he did a very good job. The overall story had some potential and with a little bit more work could have made a great great book. The killer chef concept was really cool but the book fell flat. not Patterson level quality.

How could this be the same author who penned Along Came a Spider or Violets are Blue? Shallow plot, shallow characters, wrong narrator. UGGH!! I had to keep checking if this was part of his teenage series but it wasn't. No excuses on this one. It is not just disappointing, it is INSULTING!!!

Terrible narration, disappointing story
I'm a huge Patterson fan, but this book was dreadful. First the narrator is awful. I didn't like him from the first. As the protagonist his voice was annoying and he cannot do a woman's POV to save his life. Worse, the character of the the Chef is a creepy horn-dog. He instantly evaluates all all women based upon sexual appeal and chases a married woman who is as sketchy as he is. Also, he's a foodie, a great chef. Who knows of a great chef who eats peppers the entire time he cooks? He's tasting his food how? His taste buds are fired up with peppers, but he knows, somehow, his food is fantastic.
Just a terrible book. I kept listening hoping it would get better, but nope. Don't waste a credit on this one!!!
