Publisher's Summary
Who's afraid?
Alex Cross battles the most ruthless and powerful killer he has ever encountered: a predator known only as the Wolf.
Alex Cross' first case since joining the FBI has his new colleagues stymied. Across the country, men and women are being kidnapped in broad daylight and then disappearing completely. These people are not being taken for ransom, Alex realizes. They are being bought and sold. And it looks like a shadowy figure known as the Wolf, a master criminal who has brought a new reign of terror to organized crime, is behind this business in which ordinary men and women are sold as slaves.
You're afraid.
Even as he admires the FBI's vast resources, Alex grows impatient with the Bureau's clumsiness and caution when it is time to move. A lone wolf himself, he has to go out on his own in order to track the Wolf and try to rescue some of the victims while they are still alive.
As the case boils over, Alex is in hot water at home, too. His ex-fiancie, Christine Johnson, comes back into his life-and not for the reasons Alex might have hoped.
Full of the unexpected twists and heartrending surprises that James Patterson delivers better than any other suspense writer alive, The Big Bad Wolf is an unforgettable thriller.

The re- appearance of Alex’s ex.
I enjoyed this book a lot. Alex struggles with his decision to join the FBI. The organization is excluding him from some major stake outs, hoping he will return to the Police force.
Then to add to his stress, his ex arrives and succeeds in convincing the court that Alex jr. should be in her sole custody.

Elevator music ruins it
The unnecessary music throughout the story ruins it at time. The music horrible and not needed. The story itself is good, the narrator does a decent job, but the music is brutal

Excellent Narration
I am big James Patterson fan. I did like the narration of this book more than some of his past books. The only critical part about the performance I would say is I was not a fan of the background music. Looking forward to listening to his next book!

Well the narrators are entertaining
This is... why!? There is no real credible plot, the character is super passive, there's too many secondary characters that we just catch a glimpse of their existence and then lose track of them forever... This book lack deepness. It's as if the author had many different ideas and decided to pile them into a book.
At least, the narrators are good!
