Description

In this #1 New York Times bestseller, tropical paradise becomes a dark inferno of kidnapping, temptation, and ruthless killing when a beautiful supermodel goes missing in Hawaii.
Syd, a breathtakingly beautiful supermodel on a photo shoot in Hawaii, disappears. Fearing the worst, her parents travel to Hawaii to investigate for themselves, never expecting the horror that awaits them.
LA Times reporter Ben Hawkins is conducting his own research into the case, hoping to help the victim and get an idea for his next bestseller. With no leads and no closer to uncovering the kidnapper's identity than when he stepped off the plane, Ben gets a shocking visit that pushes him into an impossible-to-resist deal with the devil.
A heart-pounding story of fear and desire, Swimsuit transports readers to a chilling new territory where the collision of beauty and murder transforms paradise into a hell of unspeakable horrors.

    Very disappoint. The ending just dumped me on the last page without any satisfaction...paraphrasing one critic, the author ran out of things to say and had to finish the book. Poorly thought out plot, not much character development, just a lot of gore. Wouldn't waste my time on another of JP's books.
  • Great book

    I don't read as often as I would like but I grabbed this book from my moms shelf as we were heading out on road trip Frm tx to Georgia. I read the whole thing in a couple days. It's was very hard to put down, and I enjoyed it very much. I love JP!!!

    Not a huge Patterson fan, but I've read some of his stuff. This was a disappointment for me. Not a lot of character development and the plot was kind of choppy. I could have overlooked both of those things since they weren't too severe, but the ending was really inadequate. It felt like the authors just ran out of steam and slapped the last chapter on the end so they could turn in the book. Maybe it was supposed to leave the door open for a sequel, but given the quality of this book, I wouldn't be inclined to read a follow up.

    Enjoyed the book. Story line is almost too real. There probably are people like that in the world somewhere.
