The first release on Tuesday, September 15, &#8220;Murder Thy Neighbor&#8221; profiles two twisted tales inspired by true-crime horrors: the first following a neighbors&#8217; quarrel that turns violent and the second, cyber-bullying that explodes in a double murder.

All titles are available wherever books are sold.<\/p>\n<p>ABOUT JAMES PATTERSON<\/p>\n<p>James Patterson is the world&#8217;s bestselling author and most trusted storyteller. He has created many enduring fictional characters and series, including Alex Cross, the Women&#8217;s Murder Club, Michael Bennett, Maximum Ride, Middle School, and I Funny. Among his notable literary collaborations are The President Is Missing, with President Bill Clinton, and the Max Einstein series, produced in partnership with the Albert Einstein Estate. Patterson&#8217;s writing career is characterized by a single mission: to prove that there is no such thing as a person who &#8220;doesn&#8217;t like to read,&#8221; only people who haven&#8217;t found the right book. He&#8217;s given over three million books to schoolkids and the military, donated more than seventy million dollars to support education, and endowed over five thousand college scholarships for teachers. The National Book Foundation recently presented Patterson with the Literarian Award for Outstanding Service to the American Literary Community, and he is also the recipient of an Edgar Award and six Emmy Awards. He lives in Florida with his family.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following the success of JAMES PATTERSON&#8217;S MURDER IS FOREVER, ID is excited to announce an expanded deal that continues to bring the world-class author&#8217;s books to life on America&#8217;s #1 true-crime network.
