James Patterson’s next novel will be released on Facebook Messenger
James Patterson is one of the biggest authors in the world. He was the first author to sell a million ebooks, while also selling more than 375 million copies of his works overall. Now, he’s trying a new medium: Facebook Messenger. Tomorrow, Facebook will debut a “digital novel experience” based on his forthcoming book The Chef.
The Chef will be formally published as a hardcover novel next February, and it follows New Orleans celebrity food truck chef and police detective Caleb Rooney after he’s accused of committing a murder while in the line of duty. While trying to prove his innocence, he discovers that his city is under the threat of a terrorist attack, and he has to clear his name and save New Orleans before Mardi Gras.
