What to expect

_______________________________________
The fourteenth book in the bestselling Alex Cross series

A killer’s trail leads Detective Alex Cross to Africa – and a whole new world of danger.

Called in to investigate a massacre in Washington D.C., Alex Cross is shocked to discover an old friend among the victims. Furious and devastated, he sets out to get justice.

The lethal D.C. underworld leads him to the Niger Delta, where the heroin and slave trades are rife, and to the terrifying, psychopathic perpetrator of the massacre: the Tiger.

But nothing is what it seems, and as Cross travels deeper into this dangerous world of corruption and conspiracy, his own survival is on the line…

Critics Review

  • [Cross Country] opens with one of the most chilling murder scenes I’ve read in a long time … High-octane stuff

    DAILY EXPRESS

  • It was absolutely fantastic … Cross Country has an amazing sense of speed, there’s a really brilliant tension in the plot … You’re just completely engrossed in it from start to finish … The story is unrelentingly exciting

    THE SIMON MAYO SHOW, BBC Radio 5 Live

  • Heart-stopping, speed-charged, and electrifying, Cross Country is a stunning thriller from “the man who can’t miss.

    TIME

  • It’s no mystery why James Patterson is the world’s most popular thriller writer: his uncanny skill in creating living, breathing characters we truly feel for and seamless, lightning-fast plots. I do this for a living, and he still manages to keep me guessing from the first to last page … Simply put: Nobody does it better.

    JEFFERY DEAVER

  • Behind all the noise and the numbers, we shouldn’t forget that no one gets this big without amazing natural storytelling talent – which is what Jim has, in spades. The Alex Cross series proves it
