Lomax and Biggs are back, and this is my good friend and co-writer Marshall Karp at his funniest-while also fashioning a very tight and surprising mystery.-James Patterson

Marshall Karp, coauthor of the #1 bestselling NYPD Red series, sets his latest thriller in LA, where someone is recruiting terminally ill patients to commit one final act before they die. Murder.

Laced with twists, turns, and Karp’s trademark biting cop humor, you may find yourself rooting for the killers-law-abiding citizens who have abandoned their values to earn a half million dollars for the loved ones they will leave behind. You may also find yourself asking, What would I do?

If you’ve never met LAPD detectives Mike Lomax and Terry Biggs, TERMINAL is the perfect place to start.
