Product Description

From the man the Sunday Telegraph called the 'master of the suspense genre' comes the next high-velocity thriller in the Alex Cross series - James Patterson and Alex Cross fans cannot wait to read DOUBLE CROSS.

Alex Cross rejoins the DC police force to confront two of the most diabolical killers he's ever encountered. Just when Alex's life is calming down, he is drawn back into the game to confront a criminal mastermind like no other. The elaborate murders that have stunned Washington, DC, are the wildest that Alex and his new girlfriend, Detective Brianna Stone, have ever seen. This maniac adores an audience, and stages his killings as spectacles in public settings. Alex is pursuing a genius of terror who has the whole city on edge as it waits for his next move. And the killer loves the attention, no doubt – he even sets up his own website and live video feed to trumpet his madness.
 
And in Colorado, another criminal mastermind is planning a triumphant return. From his supermaximum-security prison cell, Kyle Craig has plotted for years to have one chance at an impossible escape. If he has to join forces with DC’s Audience Killer to get back at the man who put him in that cell – Alex Cross – all the better.

A little disappointing... 3
..because I think that the Cross series are becoming a little predictable and 'the same'. I hope we get a more exciting next book. As much as I loved Alex Cross I hope I don't get too bored with this series. Enjoying the Womens Murder Mystery Club books more at the moment.

A good read for Patterson Fans4
As an avid fan of Patterson I really enjoyed this book, bring on the sequel I can't wait.

In general I hate people who accuse writers of being sellouts but.....sellout1
I LOVE James Patterson's Alex Cross series!! I own them all!! But the two most recent books have frankly been torture to read, very repitive and just seem to be bringing parts of previous books together!
And has he sold the writes to 2 chapters per book to mercedes?? there's a break in the book for Alex Cross to try and sell a new car and how great the Merc is!!!
Please get back on form James Patterson!
