Gone: (Michael Bennett)

Gone by James Patterson can be best described as a totally-intense, gripping, and furiously-paced book which can keep the reader completely engaged till the very last page. While the book is an absolutely brilliant follow up to I, Michael Bennett, it can also be read as a standalone story. What makes Gone unique is its excellent narration made possible through the characters such as Danny Mastrogiorgio and Henry Leyva. The author has rightly managed to keep the readers spellbound through a series of incidents.

The story follows a detective pattern and is centered around the life of Manuel Perrine, a drug dealer who resorts to every illegal means to get his needs fulfilled. Michael Bennett, a detective from NYPD is the only official who could capture Perrine. However, in the events that follows, Perrine manages to escape from Bennett. With a bounty on him and his family, the Bennetts are placed in witness protection. The book is all about Bennett and his efforts to find Manuel Perrine.

Contrary to the usual detective patterns, the book is characterized by numerous fun filled family moments. Completely set amidst action, the author has rightly managed to include right proportions of sentiments, fun, and adventure all through. What makes the book distinct is the amazing series of twists and actions, rich enough to enthrall the readers. Published in 2014 by Random House Export, the book is available as paperback.
