About this listen

The 12th novel in James Patterson's Alex Cross series. Alex Cross was a rising star in Washington, DC, Police Department when an unknown shooter killed his wife, Maria, in front of him. Years later, having left the FBI and returned to practising psychology, Alex finally feels his life is in order... Until his former partner, John Sampson, calls in a favour. John's tracking a serial rapist in Georgetown and he needs Alex to help find this brutal predator. When the case triggers a connection to Maria's death, could Alex have a chance to catch his wife's murderer? Will this be justice at long last? Or the endgame in his own deadly obsession?

From the man the Sunday Telegraph called 'the master of the suspense genre', CROSS is the ultimate, high-velocity, high-emotion thriller, and the one Alex Cross's fans waited years to read.

I am a massive James Patterson fan but for a long time haven't found the time to pick up a book so this is my first audible 'read' ... I loved it. The narration is spot on for me. Hoping this guy narrates more of his books...now where's the next one!

Thoroughly enjoyed this...

Jumped around all over the place. Main villain not one I could believe in
Narrator was below the standard of previous Alex across novels. It feels like the series is out of ideas and maybe should end now

A weak Cross novel
