Product Description Since the death of her husband, Anne Dunne and her three children have struggled in every way. In a last ditch effort to save the family, Anne plans an elaborate sailing vacation to bring everyone together once again. But only an hour out of port, everything is going wrong. The teenage daughter, Carrie, is planning to drown herself. The teenage son, Mark, is high on drugs and ten-year-old Ernie is nearly catatonic. This is the worst vacation ever. Anne manages to pull things together bit by bit, but just as they begin feeling like a family again, something catastrophic happens. Survival may be the least of their concerns. Written with the blistering pace and shocking twists that only James Patterson can master, SAIL takes "Lost" and "Survivor" to a new level of terror.

Sailing with the Dunnes July 19, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
On the drive to and from work for the last few days, I've been listening to the reading of Sail by James Patterson and Howard Roughan. Talk about being on the edge of your seat (car seat).
The Dunne family experiences problem after devastating problem when they embark on a sailing trip on their private boat. This formerly not so closenit mother and her three kids take this trip to get closer to each other. But they didn't know that someone very close to them would be happy if they didn't come back...ever.
This story is the ultimate exampe of "what goes around comes around" because every bad guy gets his due, no matter how cunning they thought they were.
I totally recommend this book to anybody who loves to read about a great adventure with a happy ending.
Typical Patterson July 18, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
As usual, you will find it difficult to put the book down once you have started to read. He keeps you guessing throughout, and then a finish you never expected. Keep them coming, Mr. Patterson, I'm ready.
Awesome as always! July 17, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
James Patterson has done it again! With every page he keeps you on the edge of your seat. I finished this book at 4 in the morning because I simply could not put it down! As usual, its completely an unexpected ending but he really draws you into the story. If you like a well written mystery then James Patterson is a must have! You won't want to miss this one! S.L.

Sail by James Patterson
A book that you cannot put down. Interesting to the very end.
Good summer read July 16, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love James Patterson and read everything of his! This was a great page-turner and wonderful summer read. I read it quickly and had a hard time putting it down. HOWEVER, that snake scene on the beach was a bit over the top!! I did have my heart beating, now I admit that, but some of the scenes(the shark) were a bit "out there"! But, Hey! It was fun!
