Book Description:
Alex Cross is on his way to resign from the Washington Police when his partner John Sampson shows up at his door. One of Sampson's oldest friends has been framed for murder and, worse yet, is subject to the insular laws of the U.S. Army. The evidence is strong enough to send him to the gas chamber.

Cross and Sampson plunge into a case where military codes of honor conceal dark currents of revenge and ambition, and the men controlling the moves have the best weapons and training the world can offer. Drawing on their years of street training and an almost telepathic mutual trust, Cross and Sampson go deep into military lines to confront the most terrifying-and lethal-killer they have ever encountered.

I enjoyed this book very much and I am becoming a Patterson fan more and more after each book I read. The story line of Four Blind Mice is about an Army cover up over murders in the Vietnam war and the murders that were done to continue the cover up 30 years later. John Sampson was more involved in this book more than all the other Alex Cross novels so far and I enjoyed that immensely. Sampson finally falls in love in this one as well. Good read and suspenseful to to the end.

Another of Patterson's stories following his character, Detective Alex Cross and his partner, John Sampson. A great Detective story, without the superfulous and obvious over-characterization of police detectives. Patterson brings out the human side of his characters in all of his books.

A good Patterson book...a little gruesome for me when he goes into great detail about the murders that the Three Blind Mice commit. The fourth of the blind mice is an unknown leader and is not revealed until the very end.
