In a Virginia penitentiary, Alex Cross and his partner, John Sampson, witness the execution of a killer they helped convict. Hours later, they are called to the scene of a copycat crime. A note signed M rests on the corpse. You messed up big time, Dr. Cross.
Was an innocent man just put to death? Alex soon realizes he may have much to answer for, as M lures the detective out of the capital to the sites of multiple homicides, all marked with distressingly familiar details -- details that conjure up decades-old cases. Details that conjure up Cross family secrets. Details that make clear that M is after a prize so dear that -- were the killer to attain it -- Alex's heart would no longer have reason to beat.

About the Author
Patterson's writing career is characterized by a single mission: to prove that there is no such thing as a person who doesn't like to read, only people who haven't found the right book. He's given over three million books to schoolkids and the military, donated more than seventy million dollars to support education, and endowed over five thousand college scholarships for teachers. The National Book Foundation recently presented Patterson with the Literarian Award for Outstanding Service to the American Literary Community, and he is also the recipient of an Edgar Award and six Emmy Awards. He lives in Florida with his family.

Time to give Alex the chop!

How it ended felt quite abrupt.
I was expecting to have the killers identity reveled; but I guess THIS killer gives the Author, who I think is quite brilliant, another book so that he can resurface again.
Flummoxed because there's no reason given to his actions. anyway it was okay....
I prefer books to have a definitive end but I just found this one to be full of Alex Cross's previous actions etc.
Reccomend it but be prepared for an abrupt halt where the killer is concerned! hmmm.
How many tears will this nemesis of Alex's go on... incredibly annoying.
just my opinion.



It was these far fetched stunts and the slightly rushed ending with no explanation of why M was after Cross for that many years , who he really was or his agenda.
