The thirty-first instalment in James Patterson's globally bestselling series.
When an American Airlines plane explodes in the sky, detectives Alex Cross and John Sampson are first on the scene. They don't hear the gunfire. At first.
It soon becomes clear that the plane was taken down by a rare, stolen machine gun. The list of people who could operate the weapon is short. And time runs even shorter.
But this isn't the only case the pair must solve. They're also tracking a serial killer who's ambushing young men in what the media are calling the 'Dead Hours' murders.
With two killers and two different motives, Cross and Sampson are in a deadly race against time . . .
I loved this book! I like the fact that it has short chapters so that you can easily read a big and then stop. (Who am I kidding that didn’t happen!!) but I know for some people, short chapters are a must!
Obviously, our main character is Alex Cross who you may already have heard if, now I have read some previous books in the series but not all of them - does it matter if you have not read them all previously? Absolutely not!
This had me gripped from the off with 3 storylines running simultaneously. Don’t be put off by that, it’s very easy to keep track and not confusing - another bonus!
I loved the writing style and it was so easy to just keep on reading as the storylines developed I just needed to know who was behind it.
I loved how whilst all this was going on we also got a little insight into the family life of Alex, and I think it is clear that his son is going to be a chip off the old block!
Whilst the first couple of storylines are resolved we still had the main one outstanding and this had me on the edge of my seat as to how it was all going to play out!
Just brilliant! James Patterson is just such a talented writer to have written so many books and still be able to create such masterpieces!
