This is the Michael Bennett entry in the fast-paced Bookshots novellas by Patterson and his team of writers. And it was very fast-paced at only 115 pages! I would have read this in one sitting but Christmas activities got in the way. Basically the story starts out with a man falling from a Manhattan hotel. But was it a suicide or was he pushed? Bennett is on the case but when he finds out the victim is using a false identity and has a wad of cash in his possession, he rules out suicide rather quickly. Then a fingerprint match comes through identifying the victim as an Air Force pilot who had supposedly died years earlier in a plane crash in Iraq. (A news article about the incident states that the pilot lived in Liberty, Utah and went to Weber High School. I was very surprised to read this because I actually went to Weber High which is located about 2 miles from where I currently live!) Anyway, Bennett ends up travelling to DC to try to find out more about the victim and then gets in a near life and death situation as he tries to determine what exactly happened.

Overall, I thought this was a good thriller in the Bookshots series. A fast and entertaining read.
