The Last Days of John Lennon

Incredibly tense and thriller-like … I totally recommend it – Lee Child
The dialogue is punchy, cinematic … we get inside the mind of Patterson’s villain, the delusional Chapman, through periodic chapters from his point of view as he works up the courage to pull the trigger on Lennon * GQ *
Pure Patterson: fast-paced, no-frills * SUNDAY TIMES *
We do get the details of Lennon’s last days. But we get plenty, too, about his life before that, from childhood onwards. There’s also a distinctly thriller-like structure - to go with the thriller-like prose - as Lennon’s full story is interspersed with increasingly sinister scenes of Chapman arriving in New York … Patterson’s admiration for Lennon is clear. Nonetheless, the thoroughly researched biography does remind us again what a contradictory and often troubled character he was. * Reader’s Digest *
