The 19th novel in the best-selling Alex Cross series.

Detective Alex Cross is called into action on Christmas Eve - and he'll be lucky to see the New Year....

Christmas celebrations with his family are cut short when Detective Alex Cross receives a phone call.

A drug-crazed man has taken his own family hostage and their lives depend on Alex. But it's not just them.

As the suburban nightmare unfolds, a greater threat arises - a terrorist attack like Washington has never seen. And Alex is caught in the middle.

Critic reviews

"A tense, multi-voiced reading." (Kati Nicholl, Express)

"Fast-paced and tightly plotted, this is a dramatic thriller that shows why the books in this series sell by the truckload." (Sunday Mirror)

"No one gets this big without amazing natural storytelling talent - which is what Jim has, in spades. The Alex Cross series proves it." (Lee Child, international best-selling author of the Jack Reacher series)

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, I would recommend it, but I would preface that by encouraging them to listen to or read the earlier ones first, or I don't think they would get such a feel for the whole Alex family dynamic.

Have you listened to any of the narrators’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

These weren't my favourite narrators, but they were okay, and it is good to have multiple narrators for the different parts, it allows you to feel more connected to them.

A good book but not my favourite Alex Cross
