Query: Very disappointing

I am a fan of James Patterson. Unfortunately I found this book a huge disappointment. Patterson is a talented writer but he seems to be in a "money hunt". That is, he is capitalizing on his success by churning out 3 - 5 books a year. Sadly, most of these are joint efforts, in which I suspect the secondary author writes the book and Patterson acts as editor. That would explain why the quality of his work is diminishing.I'd love to see 1 really well written novel a year from this author that is written by him alone. Beach Road is certainly not it. It is a completely mundane work with a weak plot and lacking in the usual Patterson suspense.
