Book Reviews of the Two-Book ‘Invisible’ series of novels by James Patterson and David Ellis
Synopses of the Invisible Series
Invisible
Emmy Dockery is an FBI researcher in Washington, DC who often finds patterns to crimes that seem to point her toward cases she believes the FBI needs to investigate. She comes across a great many unsolved cases all across the country which Emmy is convinced are connected. She becomes obsessed with finding a link between these cases, to the point where she even takes a leave from her job to continue gathering information on hundreds of kidnappings, rapes, and murders.
Everyone, including her ex-boyfriend, field agent Harrison “Books” Bookman, think she is crazy. No one believes her until Emmy finds a piece of evidence which cannot be ignored.
Could one person be responsible for all these crimes, even though no motives or murder weapons or suspects have ever been proved?
James Patterson takes you on a chilling and scary thriller in Invisible!
Unsolved
In this follow-up to Invisible, we find a series of perfect murders, each of which look like an accident. But as the bodies begin to pile up, Emmy Dockery realizes that something horrible is happening. She also begins to believe that her twin sister’s death in a house fire several months ago, believed to be accidental, is anything but!
Emmy has a unique skill at seeing connections others miss. As a result this has brought her an impressive string of arrests. But these cases where the victims all appear to have died by accident, seemingly with nothing in common, have not only baffled Emmy, but have left her findings so unbelievable that she cannot get anyone to investigate.
The FBI Director talks to former special agent Harrison (Books) Bookman, now running a book store called “The Book Man”, into returning to look into these cases because one of the suspects is Books’ ex-fiancee Emmy Dockery. Books accepts because he wants to prove the agency is wrong about Emmy.
But, someone else is also watching Emmy and waiting until the perfect time to strike!
Summary
In each book in this series, the villain is someone you would never suspect. I was fooled right to the end. Surprising endings indeed, typical of James Patterson. This was definitely a series well worth reading.

The Invisible Series by James Patterson and David Ellis:
This sounds like a great series. I love James Patterson but I’ve missed these.
ReplyDeleteLike you, I enjoy discovering James Patterson books I haven't yet read. Hope you enjoy these two as much as I did, Mary Beth. :)
DeleteBoth books, Invisible and Unsolved, sound quite enthralling. Definitely books that once you start reading them, you will not want to put down.
ReplyDeleteWhen you begin a series, it always helps to have the next book in the series ready to read once the first one is finished. As you said, you don't want to put them down. :)
DeleteThese sound like cleverly crafted thrillers that will take readers on an engrossing ride.
ReplyDeleteThey definitely kept me engrossed, Margaret. Thanks.
