Summary: The latest episode in the troubled life of Patterson's Alex Cross makes a very satisfying novel narrated by Cross, giving the D.C. police detective a thoughtful, measured tone that, when tested by a pair of vicious multiple murderers and an obsessed character from his past, turns tough, understandably aggressive, and, at times, unexpectedly guilt-ridden. Patterson gives voice to the twisted killers--one erudite and sinister, the other emotional and sleazy--whose plot to discredit Cross works surprisingly well. With a series as long running as this, the secret of success for each new addition is its ability to place its hero into a state of credible jeopardy.
