In this heart-pounding thriller from the world’s most popular storyteller, with relentless danger around every corner, Detective Alex Cross is hunting down a kidnapper . . . but only if someone powerful doesn't kill him first.
The inspiration for #1 hit streaming show, Cross.
The President's son and daughter are abducted, and Detective Alex Cross is one of the first on the scene. But someone very high-up is using the FBI, Secret Service, and CIA to keep him off the case and in the dark.
A deadly contagion in the water supply cripples half of the capital, and Alex discovers that someone may be about to unleash the most devastating attack the United States has ever experienced.
As his window for solving both crimes narrows, Alex makes a desperate decision that goes against everything he believes-one that may alter the fate of the entire country. Kill Alex Cross is fast, exciting, and tightly wound, full of "fast-and-furious action" (Washington Post).
Reviews
Terrorism in DC
5By C.StapletonAnytime children are included in the drama/ mystery, it can be more intense. Loved that the children were the son & daughter of the President and First Lady. International terrorism strikes a modern day chord.Great book

5By SunnytweetzStupendous!! James Patterson can truly bring it home!Just a shadow
3By PDennisonI've read most if not all of the Alex Cross books & must say that I was somewhat disappointed. The story was thinly flushed out and the ending seemed rushed and incomplete. I'll think twice before my next purchase.Absolutely terrible!
1By KarenAraceI haven't read Patterson in quite some time, and decided to give him another chance. What a waste of money!! I will NEVER read another Patterson book. It was boring, predictable and the ending lacked imagination. Patterson is obviously cranking out books in order to increase his profits. Save your money on this one!Must read
4By Matt buIt started out slow, but once you start reading I will say 100 pages you won't want to put the book down. A great read!!!LOVED it!!!

3By RosecileNot one of his best. Patterson has too many books with the same plot. Easy read. Kinda of knew what was going to happen next.Kill Alex Cross
5By TbirdaceAfter 40 years of trade journals, reading a good book now and then has come back into my retired life. Patterson's "Kill Alex Cross" didn't let me down. Thrilling from the first chapter with twists and turns along the way to keep me glued to our hero Cross. Patterson's skill as a writer was firing on all levels of a great detective. Can't wait to pick up another Patterson adventure.....Kill Alex Cross
5By KayegirlPrincetonAs always I enjoyed another James Patterson book.Kill Alex Cross
5By GatorsdavidAnother great Alex Cross book. Alex Cross is James Patterson's best character he has ever wrote about. I can't wait to read the next Alex Cross book.
