Patterson's short punchy style and believable homicide detective, black single dad Alex Cross, have taken him to the top of the bestseller lists.
This is another gripping read, the psychological games a crucial part of the hunt. Cross's home and love life draws the reader in deep -- they are as much a part of the plot as the criminals he hunts.
