| Plot Summary of Black Friday |
|---|
"This is an awesome book about the third world war: The end of Wall Street. Arch Carroll is the main character, and he is a lot like Alex Cross (For those of you who read other Patterson books) This is an older book, but still worth reading. Patterson has always been the master, and continues to be just that."
Steve Schmitz, Resident Scholar
