Kill Me If You Can
“Patterson, more than ably assisted by the extremely talented and woefully underappreciated Marshall Karp, has in the closing days of summer come up with one of the must-read books of the season…This fabulous thriller is full of action and occasional humor, and just enough sex to make the heat rise when the book is closed. Give Kill Me If You Can a chance. You will not be sorry.”

From "America's #1 storyteller" (Forbes) comes a high-speed, high-stakes, winner-take-all thrill ride of adrenaline-fueled suspense.
Matthew Bannon, a poor art student living in New York City finds a duffel bag filled with diamonds during a chaotic attack at Grand Central Station. Plans for a worry-free life with his gorgeous girlfriend Katherine fill his thoughts until he realizes he is being hunted, and that whoever is after him won't stop until they have reclaimed the diamonds and exacted their revenge.
Trailing him is the Ghost, the world's greatest assassin, who has just pulled off his most high-profile hit, killing Walter Zelvas, a top member of the international diamond syndicate. There's only one small problem: the diamonds he was supposed to retrieve from Zelvas are missing. Now, the Ghost is on Bannon's trail, but so is a rival assassin who would like nothing more than to make the Ghost disappear forever.
