About this listen

Detective Alex Cross is back, and he's in love. Unfortunately, a series of chilling murders in Washington intervenes, with a plot twist you will never forget. Cross' ingenious pursuit of the quirky killer produces a suspect - a British diplomat named Geoffrey Shafer. But proving that Shafer is the murderer becomes a difficult and deadly task. As the diplomat engages in a brilliant series of surprising countermoves, both in and out of the courtroom, Cross and his fiancei become hopelessly involved with the most memorable villain Cross has ever faced.©1999 James Patterson (P)16 9; 1999 Time Warner AudioBooks (Packaging Elements Only), A Division of Time Warner Trade Publishing Crime Hard-Boiled Murder Mystery Police Procedural Psychological Suspense Thriller & Suspense Fiction

Critic reviews

"Patterson's well-oiled suspense machine grinds away with solid precision." (Publishers Weekly)

Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time


The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

I really enjoyed the overall storyline . I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. However, there are a couple of things that caused me to give it 4 out of 5 stars. So the first is the narration. The voice made it hard to stay focused on the story. The southern accent was awful and the different tones used for different characters made it hard to follow who was talking to whom. Another reason was the information within the story. I understand that the book is a work of fiction and therefore doesn't necessarily need to be 100% accurate, but some things need to be correct to be believable. There are several times that pharmaceutical drugs are mentioned and the way the character was affected by them was completely wrong. I noticed that when these inconsistencies came up, I was thinking about how if (character 's name) had taken all of those together, he would be dead or in extreme pain.
Aside from those 2 issues, the book was great.

Another great book from James Patterson

Riveting!

This is another great Alex Cross story. He is more vulnerable than in the previous novels. The Villain is diabolical and yet realistic. There seemed to have been one chapter missing at the end. The confrontation before the fight is missing. Otherwise it was excellent.

Deeply Disturbing Murder Mystery

I started these alex cross books from the beginning. First three could have been stand alone. This one is probably better if you’ve read / heard the earlier ones. Very engaging though. Kinda mindless easy to listen to story telling.

Good
