I love Alex Cross books! Now on to my Christmas present: Cross My Heart! ( )

It's always the plot and pace that keep me interested in these books and the missed plot points and gaps that keep me wondering why I keep reading them...I think this is the last one I own as of now, guess I'll have to keep an eye out for the rest at the used book store, just to finish what I started ( )

I was getting tired of James Patterson's formula, but with the book he is back. The book was highly suspenseful and I couldn't wait for one of the bad guys to get caught. It also had a sad part with Alex Cross losing one of his own. ( )

A pair of thrill-seeking killers are on the loose: one stabbing long legged blonde women to death and the other shooting and mutilating male prostitutes. A third killer is publicly humiliating Alex in his role as a blogger and stalking his family for his incidental role in the death of his girlfriend years ago. While his family, including his foster daughter Ava, play a larger role in this novel, both his cop wife Bree and cop best friend John Sampson seem to have become bit players in Patterson's recent templates, which is a shame. Alex is actually suspended for his seemingly unjustified attack on the blogger, but solves the mystery from the sideline. ( )

Excellent. I have a new series to read :-) ( )
