À propos de cet audio

Discover the classic thriller that launched the #1 detective series and is the inspiration for the original series Cross on Prime Video!

Alex Cross is a homicide detective with a Ph.D. in psychology. He works and lives in Southeast D.C. and looks like Muhammad Ali in his prime. He's a tough guy from a tough part of town who wears Harris Tweed jackets and likes to relax by banging out Gershwin tunes on his baby grand piano. But he also has two adorable kids of his own, and they are his own special vulnerabilities.

Jezzie Flanagan is the first woman ever to hold the highly sensitive job as supervisor of the Secret Service in Washington. Blond, mysterious, seductive, she's got an outer shell that's as tough as it is beautiful. She rides her black BMW motorcycle at speeds of no less than 100 mph. What is she running from? What is her secret?

Alex Cross and Jezzie Flanagan are about to have a forbidden love affair-at the worst possible time for both of them. Because Gary Soneji, who wants to commit the "crime of the century," is playing at the top of his game. Soneji has outsmarted the FBI, the Secret Service, and the police. Who will be his next victim?

Gary Soneji is every parent's worst nightmare. He has become Alex Cross's nightmare. And now, he's about to become yours.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Patterson's storytelling talent is in top form in this grisly escapist yarn." (Library Journal)

"Brilliantly terrifying! So exciting that I had to stay up all night to finish it! Packed with white-knuckle twists." (Daily Mail)

"An incredibly suspenseful read with a one-of-a-kind villain who is as terrifying as he is intriguing." (Clive Cussler)

The storyline is interesting and engaging, which was the thing that stopped me from quiting on this book. the narrator sounded like a robot. All the characters have the exact same voice and none of their personalities came through at all. At times I was confused who is talking, or whether something is the narrative, a character's inner thoughts or speech.
if you can find this book narrated by someone else, I'd stay away from this version.

Robotic narration did not do the book justice

I thoroughly enjoyed listening. I’m a big fan of Patterson & with great narration, I could listen for a long time at once.

The chapters bounce around a bit so it can be a little confusing but the story overall is solid. Definitely entertaining for a suspense theme.

Good psychopath story

I love James Patterson's Alex Cross series. My reason for fewer stars is that I couldn't find the narrator's voice intriguing. He just seemed monotone to me. This is the first audio book I've not enjoyed.

just ok

I enjoy James Patterson which is why I chose this book, but I almost had to stop listening because of the terrible, robotic, unimaginative narration. By far the worst of all the books I’ve listened to!

Robotic narration

Although I enjoyed the story quite a bit, I think part of the problem may have been in the narration. Although I love Taye Diggs as an actor, I don't think reading audio books is where he shines. His voice really didn't change as the characters spoke. It was difficult at times to tell who was speaking & whether they were speaking out loud or if it was a character's thoughts or if it was just the story being told. I got lost a few times, perhaps there were too many characters. So I did find myself having to go back in the book a few times. I found the author's use of the phrase “Soneji slash Murphy” really annoying after about the 30th time he said it! If you can over look a few of these issues I think you will enjoy the story.

Another enjoyable read from Patterson
