Best book by far? Yes! A thriller that will have you glued to the book until the last page. Alex Cross, a retired detective is contented with his life, and his relationship with Homicide Detective Brianna Stone means he's never far from the action. Cross finds himself back in the action when a depraved killer throws a woman off the balcony of her D.C. apartment in front of a crowd of stunned people. The murders continue in this same fashion in front of crowds of people so the moniker of "Audience Killer" is attached to this psychopath. Cross and Bree try to stay one step ahead of him but adding to their frustration is the news that "Mastermind," Kyle Craig has just escaped from prison. The media spreads terror throughout the city as the body count rises. Behind all this, Cross believes he is being played in the ultimate double cross. Is he looking at two psychopaths instead of one? None stop action when Alex Cross is back on the scene. Really loved this book and glad to see Patterson back in true form!Read full review
Good book, but not great in my opinion. Lots of action and suspense, but I am a little tired of the repetitive beatings and gunshot wounds on Alex. Getting a little bit too predictable. Still, all and all pretty good book.

James Patterson hits another one out of the park with this book! If you are a fan of the Alex Cross novels, you will be more than pleased with this latest addition to that series! Alex is being targeted by TWO different killers! One of which is Kyle Craig who is back for revenge! (I'm not saying anymore..don't want to ruin anything for anyone!) I read this book in less than 24 hours! I could NOT put it down! James Patterson has such a great way of presenting his characters and pulling the readers into his stories. He has a keen eye for details and the way he presents and writes his novels makes for a very enjoyable read. I highly recommend this book! You will not be disappointed! 5 stars!
I purchased this book on a Thursday evening and finished in Friday evening. This is James Patterson at his best. Patterson never one to disappoint has really outdone himself with this latest Alex Cross novel. I was really impressed with how he was able to tie to complete different characters (The Mastermind and the Audience Killer) so well together without losing focus on either of the plot lines. Patterson is truly gifted at writing story after story that keeps his readers gripped from the first chapter. This book should be a definite read for any Patterson fan and also for anyone who is just discovering this wonderful author.
I love James Patterson's books about Alex Cross, Lindsey Boxer and Michael Bennett. They are interesting.
