The newest James Patterson book (Jan. 2025) as I post is something of a departure from his standard template.
The style of writing is simplistic — which somehow suits the honest, sincere hero of the story ➙ Texas Ranger Rory Yates.
The Texas Murders, 3rd in the Texas Ranger series.
Texas Ranger Rory Yates protects his home state wearing a five-pointed silver badge and carrying a Sig Sauer.
When a native woman disappears on the summer solstice, clues point to a cold case.
Yates, a quick-draw champion, partners with expert archer Ava Cruz of the Tigua Tribal police.
The investigation leads to the edges of Texas’s most unforgiving landscape, where the officers take dead aim with every shot in their arsenals.
