Invisible is a suspense novel co-authored by James Patterson and David Ellis, forming part of the 'Invisible' series and succeeded by Unsolved (2019).

Plot

Emmy Dockery, an FBI research analyst currently on leave, delves into a series of deadly fires officially deemed accidental, though she insists they are deliberate acts of arson. Her determination puts her FBI position at risk and creates tension with those close to her, including her former fiancé "Books," who is a former FBI agent. Upon discovering compelling proof that persuades Books, the FBI initiates a formal inquiry headed by him, with Emmy joining the investigative team. The investigation broadens across the country, uncovering hundreds of suspicious fire incidents and increasing dangers for those involved.

Reviews

Invisible enjoyed notable commercial acclaim, securing the number two spot on the USA Today best-seller chart and appearing on the New York Times Best Seller list for Combined Print & E-Book Fiction soon after its publication. The New York Journal of Books commended it as an engaging read despite its heavy themes, emphasizing its strong appeal in the market.
