Week Fifty-Two - Happy New Year


This just might be the best Alex Cross novel to date.

Kyle Craig, Cross’s deadliest adversary, returns with a vengeance. The Mastermind's bent for revenge is coupled with a series of Washington D.C. assassinations and Alex and Bree's wedding planning. This dynamic makes this crime thriller a page turner.

Using skillfully crafted prose as well as returning to his old form, Patterson is at the top of his game.
