I, Michael Bennett

This is an okay book co-written by James Patterson and Michael Ledwidge. Detective Michael Bennett arrests an infamous Mexican crime lord in a deadly chase that leaves Bennett's lifelong friend Hughie McDonough dead. From jail, the prisoner vows to rain epic violence upon New York City – and to get revenge on Michael Bennett. To escape the chaos, Bennett takes his ten kids and their beautiful nanny, Mary Catherine, on a much-needed vacation to the family’s cabin near Newburgh, New York. But instead of the calm and happy town he remembers from growing up, they step into a nightmare worse than they could ever have imagined. Newburgh is an inferno of warring gangs, and there’s little the police – or Bennett – can do to keep the children safe.

This is the 5th novel in the series.
