"Private royals" by James Patterson with Rees Jones. This book is published by BookShots in 2016 and has 160 pages.
It's Queen's 90th birthday celebrations. Jack Morgan, head of Private, and Peter Knight head of Private's London office are on the venue. Abbie Winchestar, daughter of Duke of Aldershot, member of Royal family, is kidnapped. If ransom is not paid her head would roll on the parade ground.
Can Private save Abbie? Who is behind this? Will Queen's birthday celebrations be destroyed?
The story is fast. Narration is good. Plot is interesting. Reference to Queen's birthday is mostly redundant. Even if it was not there it would have made no difference to the story. So the book's name could very well have been Private Wealthy or Private Kidnap or such.
The perpetrator of the crime was not camouflaged at all. I recognized the person in first 20% of the book. Then it was a verification of whether the deduction was correct or not. I believe some more efforts on that front were in order.
Since this is a BookShot edition, it is called Book 12.5 of Private series. Book 13 Private Delhi co authored with Ashwin Sanghi is recently released.
This book is from Bookshots series. Bookshots are short, high impact stories that can be read in one sitting.
Why did I read this book? Private series.
What I didn't like? Very apparent villain.
What did I like? Compactness.
