Greggorio! said AN EXCELLENT FINALE!!!!!. This is the "AN EXCELLENT FINALE!!!!!" according to Greggorio!. This is the 22nd Alex Cross novel by James Patterson and I must say it is an absolute joy to read. The first part of the story forms a well-written rehash of the traumatic but gripping events from book one that transpired concerning the Cross Family as well as simultaneously revealing new information concerning the killer/s. The reader will find that every new drop adds tension and depth to the story. As is by now almost trademarked by Mr Patterson, every chapter ends with a clever hook which makes it virtually impossible to stop reading. But why would you anyway? Just about half of the world's population. "AN EXCELLENT FINALE!!!!!" according to Greggorio!. This is the 22nd Alex Cross novel by James Patterson and I must say it is an absolute joy to read.

While I was somewhat shocked and felt very naïve by some of the things that took place in that book, it was an amazing story that I could not put down. I proceeded to read all the Alex Cross books, and in fact all the James Patterson books that I could find. I particularly loved Jack and Jill. I fell in love with the Cross family and I wanted to know their story. I hated finishing a book because I had to wait for another one to find out what happened to them.I must say, the last few books have not measure. M. Martin said Thanks to the other reviewers!. Thanks to the other reviewers. "Cross my Heart" and "Hope to Die" are ONE BOOK. after reading reviews, I waited till both were available. Having said that, it's time for Alex Cross to retire. There's no "cliff hanger" ending. The family is safe. I do think "Hope to Die" was. too dark, and too violent. When James Patterson wrote Thanks to the other reviewers! Thanks to the other reviewers.

Now that he "writes" or more accurately "contributes" to seven books a year, the quality simply isnt the same.The "gimmick" of splitting a good book in two parts in order to sell more books is why I am given this two stars.
