James Patterson's scariest stand-alone thriller ever: a young woman alone in the big city with murder in her dreams.
Kristin Burns is making her way in New York City. Her photos are being considered at a major Manhattan gallery, she works by day with two wonderful children, and the man of her dreams is almost hers for keeps. But just as everything she's ever wanted is finally within reach, her life changes forever--with one murderous nightmare. Kristin wakes up every morning from the same chilling, unforgettable dream. And suddenly, it's visiting her during the day too. As her life turns stranger by the minute, Kristin is haunted and terrified. Is it all in her head? Or is the nightmare becoming her life? Kristin searches desperately for what's real through the lens of her camera, only knowing two things for sure: that no place is safe and the fate of everyone she loves lies in her hands.
About the Author
James Patterson's most recent major bestseller is Judge and Jury. He is one of the world's most popular and successful authors and lives in Florida
You've Been Warnedis aptly titled. Patterson has produced dozens of bestselling thrillers, on his own and more recently with a stable of co-writers. But his latest seriously lacks excitement, and Kadushin doesn't do much to bring the audio version to life. Despite her exotic name and her background as a singer/composer, she sounds very much like a whiny waitress as she reads the mundane story about a supposedly talented photographer who works as a nanny for a wealthy family and falls into a fevered sexual involvement with the husband. Adding to the déjà vu withdrawals from the cliché bank are a series of nightmares featuring four body bags. She also sees-and talks with-dead people. Unfortunately, none of it adds up to a worthwhile listening experience. Consider this your warning. Simultaneous release with the Little, Brown hardcover (Reviews, July 30). (Sept.)

You've Been Warned
Well that was a strange one! I didn't see that coming when I picked up a James Patterson at random off the shelf. Mind you it is one with a co author and they can be unusual at times.
You've Been Warned is definitely a Patterson like book. It has short, snappy chapters, lots of action and is fast paced. However it is different in that the main character sees dead people who apparently come to warn her of a very unfortunate future unless she makes some major changes in her life. She also has premonitions but sadly does not recognise them for what they are until a bit too late! All this makes the book much more like something written by Stephen King or Dean Koontz. Luckily I like both those authors and I enjoy a bit of spookiness in my mysteries so I was quite comfortable.
The story was certainly mysterious to the point of being almost totally unintelligible at times. When this happens to me I don't stop and try to understand, I just go with the flow and wait for events to make it clear. That was the best thing to do with this book as nothing became clear until the very end and even then the reader was left to do a bit of guesswork.
So, don't read this book if you like everything spelled out and especially don't read it if you do not enjoy a bit of supernatural. Otherwise go for it. It is fun
