At first glance, it's a pretty, uh, novel experience. There are little asides that shake up the regular pace of Patterson's story, for example, when Rooney mentions something he's cooking in the food truck, you can ask for the recipe.

The story's not just restricted to Messenger, however. The novel's protagonist, Caleb Rooney, has an Instagram account, stocked with pics from his fictional food truck "Killer Chef", his partner, Marlene, and a mysterious "guy in yellow."。
