Publisher's Summary

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Alex Cross is gravely injured. Only his partner and friend John Sampson can keep him safe . . . and get justice.

For the first time, John Sampson is on his own.

The brilliant crime-solving duo of Washington, DC’s, Metro PD and the FBI has a proven MO: Detective Alex Cross makes his own rules. Detective John Sampson enforces them.

When military-style attacks erupt, brutally sidelining Cross, Sampson is sent reeling. The patterns are too random—Sampson’s friend, his partner, his brother—have told him. Don’t trust anyone.

As a shadow force advances on the nation’s capital, Sampson alone must protect the Cross family, his own young daughter, and every American, including the president.

Help

I can’t hear when the top Antagonist uses computer technology to speak. Anyone else?

As good as usual

Good story and breath taking. I consider that as a good politico military fiction.
End.

Not sure I like this one so much.

Lost interest so many times. Although I did come back to finish it. Right to the end.

No, not good choice

I haven’t read an Alex Cross novel for 10 years. I went for this one which, presumably, was not written by the prime author, but by the little name underneath. It was boring. It was unbelievable it was… There were just so many things I did not care for and I would roll my eyes, I must’ve heard the name Nana mama 100 or 200 times… I must’ve heard about someone’s love for Willow 50 times. I think I will completely stay away from thrillers and go for some thing from band book clubs… There’s so much more interesting.
