NYPD detective Jacob Kanon is on a tour of Europe's most gorgeous cities. But the sights aren't what draw him-he sees each museum, each cathedral, and each cafe through the eyes of his daughter's killer.
Kanon's daughter, Kimmy, and her fiance were murdered while on holiday in Rome. Since then, young couples in Madrid, Salzburg, Athens, and Paris have been found dead. Little connects the murders, other than a postcard to the local newspaper that precedes each new victim.
Now Kanon teams up with the Swedish reporter, Dessie Larsson, who has just received a postcard in Stockholm-and they think they know where the next victims will be.
With relentless logic and unstoppable action, Postcard Killers may be James Patterson's most vivid and compelling thriller yet.

Review :
The Postcard Killers tracks a serial killer who stalks his youthful prey in the cultural capitals of Europe. An intense, action-packed James Patterson thriller.
-- "Barnes & Noble, editorial review"
A great crime-fiction novel...Solid, fast-paced, with some smart twists and turns, and quite suspenseful...Two quite different writing styles, two very different backgrounds...and it moves at a blistering pace.

The story was beyond fast-paced. It was impossible to put down. The killers were despicable and their fate was kept unpredictable.
