The Black Book by James Patterson and David Ellis
4�
Billy Harney was born to be a cop. As the son of Chicago's chief of detectives with a twin sister on the force, Billy plays it by the book. Teaming up with his adrenaline-junkie partner, Detective Kate Fenton, there's nothing he wouldn't sacrifice for his job. Enter Amy Lentini, a hard-charging assistant attorney hell-bent on making a name for herself who suspects Billy isn't the cop he claims to be. They're about to be linked by more than their careers.
A horrifying murder leads investigators to an unexpected address-an exclusive brothel that caters to Chicago's most powerful citizens. There's plenty of incriminating evidence on the scene, but what matters most is what's missing: the madam's black book. Now with shock waves rippling through the city's elite, everyone's desperate to find it.David Ellis and James Patterson are a really great writing team. In this book they have combined their efforts to produce an really awesome police "Who-done it". It's actually one of the best books that I have read by Patterson in some time...of course just how much of it he actually wrote is anybodies guess. One of the best parts of the story...other than the plot itself...is the interaction between the two main characters. They will keep you guessing and changing your mind until the very last page.
