About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

The astonishing multimedia thriller – first seen on Facebook – now in print for the first time.

Police detective by day, celebrity food truck chef by night, now Caleb Rooney has a new title: Most Wanted.

In the Carnival days leading up Mardi Gras, Detective Caleb Rooney comes under investigation for a murder he is accused of committing in the line of duty – as a Major Crimes detective for the New Orleans Police Department. Has his sideline at the Killer Chef food truck given him a taste for murder? While fighting the charges against him, Rooney makes a pair of unthinkable discoveries. His beloved city is under threat of attack. And these would-be terrorists may be local.

Another gem by James Patterson. Thoroughly enjoyed the storyline and loved the narration I could listen to that voice forevermore

Another gem

Took me a while to finish this book as it really wasn’t my favourite. Killer chef was quite a hard character to like and therefore you weren’t as interested. Quite disappointing as good have been a good serial character

Not his best

A bit like fast food I enjoyed it but wanted more. more quality and a twist would have been good

predictable thriller

probably the worst James Patterson I ever listened to. Maybe Id have enjoyed it more if I had read it rather than listened because the performance was dreadful his description of food and cooking were beyond unnecessary and his attempt at female voices were skin crawlingly bad . waste of money I wish I hadn’t bothered

Poor

I generally don’t write negative reviews but this book was absolutely appalling, completely unbelievable and the main character and plots were laughable

Awful
