Book Description:
Alex Cross' family is in terrible danger--at the same time that his new job with the FBI brings him the scariest case of his career. A team of kidnappers has been snatching successful, upstanding men and women right before their families' eyes--possibly to sell them into slavery. Alex's knowledge of the D.C. streets, together with his unique insights into criminal psychology, make this mind bending case one that only he can solve--if he can just get his colleagues to set aside their staid and outdated methods.

Alec Cross has his first case since joining forces with the FBI, and it makes for a thrilling tale. Love the author and never would miss one of his books.

This book was typical James Patterson fare. I thought it was okay. Some of the things he writes about are eerie because of the likelihood they could happen.

In the midst of his FBI training, former Police Detective Alex Cross is called in to investigate The Wolf, an ex-KGB agent turned master criminal, with links to the Russian Mafia, who uses the Internet to fulfill the fantasies of some of the sickest sociopaths in recent popular fiction. Each of these well-heeled villains pays megabucks to have his current obsession, male or female, stalked, kidnapped, and delivered--to him. As the complex plot unfolds, narrators Peter J. Fernandez and Denis O'Hare offer a variety of stunning characterizations. Alex has clarity and energy, The Wolf is vicious and sadistic, and the cyber-weirdos, particularly Mr. Potter and the Art Director, are despicable. Patterson's plot, rife with imprisonment, torture, rape, and murder, gives Fernandez and O'Hare plenty to sink their teeth into.

Another winner from James Patterson. Pulls you in and keeps you enthralled until the very last page! I've spent way too many late nights with James!! I just can't put his books down....and this one is no different! Always keeps you guessing!

I was very disappointed in this book. There was no building of suspense and all the characters lacked personality.
Loved it! I've read all of the Alex Cross books, and this one is probably my favorite. Mostly because Alex has changed jobs and there is much more revealed about his life and those in it.

Suzanne B. (as with the rest of the alex cross books this one was great. very scary. really fast read.
(Classic Alex Cross - not my favorite of the series, but a quick and exciting read. Christine is back, and Alex is with the FBI.
