Description
In this #1 New York Times bestseller, Alex Cross is gravely injured and only his partner and friend John Sampson can keep him safe . . . and get justice.
For the first time, John Sampson is on his own.
The brilliant crime-solving duo of Washington, DC’s, Metro PD and the FBI has a proven MO: Detective Alex Cross makes his own rules. Detective John Sampson enforces them.
When military-style attacks erupt, brutally sidelining Cross, Sampson is sent reeling. The patterns are too random—Sampson’s friend, his partner, his brother—have told him. Don’t trust anyone.
As a shadow force advances on the nation’s capital, Sampson alone must protect the Cross family, his own young daughter, and every American, including the president.

Cross Down
5By MamadarleneMr. Patterson never disappoints!Title says it!
5By dj-waYep Cross is down,why not his big huge best friend John taking a starring role?!! Sheesh, some earlier reviews just can’t imagine reality in books that the main character didn’t just bounce right back up and save the day. Scary and plausible scenario in these current climes of hate and violence. Was a page turner from the get-go for me.Didn’t see that coming…
2By JNEUBYAt first without Cross, I thought it would be boring. But the twists make it interesting.John Sampson
5By JulB62Great read, excellent writing. Really enjoyed the focus on the John Sampson character.Just Bad
1By greenbertSorry to say that I had to force myself to get through this book. I thought it would be interesting to read a story from Sampson’s POV, but the writing didn’t support it.New author makes cross books intriguing
