ALEX CROSS IS GOING HOME.

BUT WHAT WILL HE FIND WHEN HE GETS THERE?

When his cousin is accused of an unthinkable crime, Detective Alex Cross returns to his North Carolina hometown for the first time in over three decades.

As he tries to prove his cousin's innocence in a town where justice is hard to find, Cross unearths a family secret that forces him to question everything he's ever known.

Chasing the ghosts of his past, Cross gets pulled into a case involving a string of murders. Now he's hot on the trail of a cold-hearted killer - and the answers he finds could be fatal.

Critic reviews

It's no mystery why James Patterson is the world's most popular thriller writer ... Simply put: Nobody does it better. (JEFFREY DEAVER)
Behind all the noise and the numbers, we shouldn't forget that no one gets this big without amazing natural storytelling talent - which is what Jim has, in spades. The Alex Cross series proves it. (LEE CHILD, bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series)
James Patterson is The Boss. End of. (IAN RANKIN, bestselling author of the Inspector Rebus series)
I wrote, "Along Came a Spider is the best thriller I've come across in many a year. It deserves to be this season's no. 1 bestseller and should instantly make James Patterson a household name." A household name, indeed. (NELSON DEMILLE)
Every once in a while a writer comes along and fundamentally changes the way people read. He or she is so bright, so innovative, so industrious that what they envision and create becomes the measure by which all others are judged. In 1993 one such writer - James Patterson - began to do just that ... James Patterson is the gold standard by which all others are judged. (STEVE BERRY, bestselling author of the Colton Malone series)
[Alex Cross] has become one of the greatest fictional detectives of all time, a character for the ages. (DOUGLAS PRESTON and LINCOLN CHILD)
Alex Cross is a legend. (HARLAN COBEN)
Patterson boils a scene down to the single, telling detail, the element that defines a character or moves a plot along. It's what fires off the movie projector in the reader's mind. (MICHAEL CONNELLY)
Patterson knows where our deepest fears are buried... there's no stopping his imagination. (NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW)
Patterson is in a class by himself. (VANITY FAIR)

Brilliant

It has been a while but well worth the wait. A very enjoyable way to pass the past week on.my liesurly moments. Just enough time within the story given to each line of investigation to keep up interest with the crossing of lines between each.
A nice change of scenery with inclusion of the wider family to give much more insight into just what makes Alex Cross.
The ending became apparent to me quite a while before the end but he still managed to throw in a twist to complete the story.
A thoroughly enjoyabe listen and excellent narration.
