Publisher's summary

Syd, a breathtakingly beautiful supermodel on a photo shoot in Hawaii, disappears. Fearing the worst, her parents travel to Hawaii to investigate for themselves, never expecting the horror that awaits them.

LA Times reporter Ben Hawkins is conducting his own research into the case, hoping to help the victim and get an idea for his next bestseller. With no leads and no closer to uncovering the kidnapper's identity than when he stepped off the plane, Ben gets a shocking visit that pushes him into an impossible-to-resist deal with the devil.

A heart-pounding story of fear and desire, Swimsuit transports listeners to a chilling new territory where the collision of beauty and murder transforms paradise into a hell of unspeakable horrors.

This is a great book and even better narrator.

The narrator was awesome and made the story come to life. James Patterson is and will always be a legendary author.

My first James Patterson read

Creepy and fascinating. It was like a horror movie except you get to really know the murderer and that's good in my opinion, it's not just mindless killings by a guy in a mask who never speaks. (Jason and Michael Myers really piss me off) This guy is twisted and loves what he does. Not my usual read but it was a bit addicting. Narrator did a good job and it had a satisfactory ending. Only 3 stars because I can't say I absolutely loved it. BTW the girl's name is KIM not SYD.

Disappointing Ending

The book kept me interested, but the end was terrible. I felt like the authors were tired of writing and just ended the book. Very disappinting.

Entertaining

This story was a little gruesome, but definitely kept my attention. As usual Christian Rummel was an excellent narrator.

Revisiting an old favorite

I read this book years ago and now that I almost constantly stream audio books I dug up this old favorite to revisit. A very good plot and amazing characters that pull you in and hold you.

The performance was perfect.

Swimsuit

I loved the book but did not like the name of it. It is James Patterson and full of mystery and wondering what is next.

A gut wrenching thriller

This is one of his best pieces of work thus far! All new characters, villains and victims. A brilliant ending that leaves you wanting more. The narrator, Christian Rummel, is excellent! This is a must read if you're a James Patterson fan.

Great fundamentals

This is what a thriller is supposed to feel like.
The body was better than the ending. Almost like a well written story with a last minute 'ok let's wrap this up" ending

Very suspenseful

I was very into the characters. I found myself really worried about them at times and parts of the book were hard to listen to because I didn't like what happened to some of the characters. I know it's fiction but that is how well the characters were written. lol
