New James Patterson

IN EUROPE’S MOST DANGEROUS CITY

Chris
Schneider is a superstar agent at Private Berlin, Germany headquarters
for the world’s most powerful investigation firm. He keeps his methods
secret as he tackles Private’s most high-profile cases-and when Chris
suddenly disappears, he becomes Private Berlin’s most dangerous
investigation yet.

AN INVESTIGATOR IS SEARCHING

Mattie
Engel is another top agent at Private Berlin, gorgeous and ruthlessly
determined-and she’s also Chris’s ex. Mattie throws herself headfirst
into finding Chris, following leads to the three people Chris was
investigating when he vanished: a billionaire suspected of cheating on
his wife, a soccer star accused of throwing games, and a nightclub owner
with ties to the Russian mob. Any one of them would surely want Chris
gone-and one of them is evil enough to want him dead.

AND SHE’S AFTER MORE THAN THE TRUTH

Mattie’s
chase takes her into Berlin’s most guarded, hidden, and treacherous
places, revealing secrets from Chris’s past that she’d never dreamed of
in the time they were lovers. On the brink of a terrifying discovery,
Mattie holds on to her belief in Chris-in the face of a horror that
could force all of Europe to the edge of destruction and chaos.

James
Patterson has taken the European thriller to a masterful new level with
Private Berlin, an adrenaline-charged, spectacularly violent and sexy
novel with unforgettable characters of dark and complex depths. Private
Berlin proves why Patterson is truly the world’s #1 bestselling author.
