The twenty-eighth novel in the bestselling Alex Cross series

______________________________
'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, international bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series
______________________________

A scandalous double homicide opens the psychological case files on Alex Cross...

When a glamorous socialite and a high school principal are found murdered, the shocking double homicide dominates tabloid headlines.

Detective Alex Cross knew both victims well, especially Kay who had been his patient once. And maybe more.

Alex's former Metro Homicide Partner tracks the slain principal's final movements to Alabama where Alex investigates Kay's past. They discover that although she had many enemies, all of them needed her alive.

The more the investigators push, the more resistance they find, and Alex is left facing a desperate choice between breaking trust and losing his way.

Review

It's no mystery why James Patterson is the world's most popular thriller writer: his uncanny skill in creating living, breathing characters we truly feel for and seamless, lightning-fast plots. I do this for a living, and he still manages to keep me guessing from the first to last page ... 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

James Patterson is The Boss. End of. -- IAN RANKIN

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

[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 --This text refers to the paperback edition.

From the Back Cover

A scandalous double homicide opens the psychological case files on Alex Cross . . .

When a glamorous socialite and high school principal are found murdered, lying half naked in a car, the shocking double homicide dominates tabloid headlines. Kay Willingham was a well-known philanthropist and ex-wife of the US vice president. Randall Christopher was a respected educator with political ambitions, as well as a wife and family.

Alex Cross knew both victims well. Especially Kay, who had been his patient once. And maybe more. Cross is left grieving, questioning who would want them dead, and why.

While Cross's former Metro Homicide partner John Sampson tracks Christopher's final movements, Cross and FBI Special Agent Ned Mahoney travel to Alabama to investigate Kay's past. They discover that although Kay had many enemies, none of them had a full motive.

In a world of trouble, corruption, and secrets, Cross is left facing a desperate choice between breaking a trust and losing his way . . .

Too predictable and vey short

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 December 2020

Too predictable and very short. Why do I continue to buy these Cross books? I think Cross needs killing off, that’ll stop me wasting a tenner very year. I think Grandma must be 150+ by now!

One Of His Best!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 October 2021

Verified Purchase

I so rnjoyed this book, it is certainly one of his best. I love the Cross family and also his friend John Sampson, the loss of Billie his wife and this was quite moving as a piece of writing.
The story itself was fast paced and the ending excellent. I did not find the outcome predictable at all, kept me going right to the end.
My favourite books of mr pattersons are The Murder Club series but the cross ones come a close second.
Thankyou for the pleasure you have given me over the years.

Gripping!

I liked the convoluted story which knitted together quite nicely.
It did not jump about.. in the sense that the storyline remained straightforward and not mixed-up. I love James Patterson's eloquent style
Great Alex Cross thriller who shows his human nature as well as his inquisitive and investigative style through the authors narrative.
Recommended to all that love reading thrillers! this was "cannot put the down the book but turn over pages till the end" kinda book .
Written by James Patterson in his inimitable style which I love.

Compelling

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 November 2020

Verified Purchase

Compelling reading a page turner. Paterson frustrates me too often, tries new writers, subject matter, styles etc and has some stinkers which is too be expected. Then he returns to one he knows best, resulting in a great 👍read.

Really good

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 February 2022

Verified Purchase

Considering I have started to stop reading James Patterson books simply because they don't feel like they are actually him that has written them the co-authors have, I have found that the Alex cross novels never seem to falter. Always fast paced and full of mystery and this one was full of that. Also written just by No which just goes to show how different this series feels to the others. I will continue to read the Alex cross novels and the women's murder club as they have been consistently good throughout.

Another brilliant book from James Patterson. A real rollercoaster of a read, pointing you in one direction only to discover there is another twist. Love it.

I couldn’t put this down and there was certainly lots of twists and turns and one was so unexpected that I couldn’t stop crying and had a lump in my throat. Can’t wait for for of Alex Cross.

Expect the unexpected!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 August 2021

Verified Purchase

Deadly Cross is without doubt a five star read! I couldn't leave it alone and the pace of the storytelling, combined with the short chapters, never really gave me the opportunity to put it down!
If you appreciate how a character grows and love the challenge of foreseeing twists and turns, then this is right up your street!
There was a point, as a side story opened up, that I was moved to tears by the emotions I shared with the characters.
Can't wait for the next one now!
