About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

The 17th book in the best-selling Alex Cross series.

A sniper has Washington's corrupt elite in their sights. Detective Alex Cross could be next.

When two of the capital's most hated and corrupt politicians are slain by a skilled sniper, Detective Alex Cross is called to action.

The media frenzy intensifies and public opinion is divided - is this anonymous marksman a murderer or a hero?

As Alex investigates the case, he receives a call from his deadliest adversary and his worst fears come true.

The Mastermind is in DC and this time he won't stop until Alex and his family are dead....

Having read the former books by James Patterson I remember the Kyle Craig charger but not the storyline, I was a long time ago. Still be is an excellent persona. Cross is find taken by women more than talked about before.

Great book. Was worried about the change over in speakers from Ako Mitchell, but the two men played their parts very well. 10/10 would recommend.

I'm listening to all the Cross books in order and this is the first one I've struggled to finish not because of the story which was excellent as always but because of the Voice actor portraying the "good guys" he seemed to be rushing to finish constantly and used the exact same tone pitch and accent for every character weather man woman or child was really off putting and stopped me getting immersed into the story like I usually do.
