Sinossi
Ethan e Zoe, fratello e sorella di dodici e quattordici anni, frequentano una prestigiosa scuola privata di Washington, l’ultimo luogo dove sono stati visti prima del rapimento. Ora infatti i due ragazzini sono scomparsi, portati via da una mano misteriosa, che è riuscita a eludere anche la sorveglianza del Secret Service. Sì, perché Ethan e Zoe non sono due ragazzini qualsiasi, ma i figli del presidente degli Stati Uniti d’America. Il detective Alex Cross è tra i primi a giungere sulla scena del crimine, ma si accorge subito che la sua presenza non è gradita e che FBI e CIA lo vogliono fuori dalle indagini, nonostante la First Lady in persona abbia chiesto il suo intervento. Cross, che prima di essere un detective è soprattutto un padre, indaga solo contro tutti. Chi ha preso Ethan e Zoe e perché? Nessuna rivendicazione, nessuna richiesta di riscatto... C’è invece una rivendicazione da una non meglio precisata cellula terroristica islamica per l’avvelenamento dell’acquedotto di Washington: qualcuno sta per scatenare l’attacco più devastante che gli Stati Uniti abbiano mai subito. I due casi sono collegati? Mentre il tempo stringe, Cross prende una decisione drammatica che va contro tutto quello in cui crede e che potrebbe costargli la vita...

A couple of days ago I read Along Came A Spider (Alex Cross #1) and enjoyed it so much that I was upset I had no further Alex Cross novels. I really wanted to jump straight back into Patterson's tough gritty world of Washington DC following our hero Alex Cross. However; when perusing my office/libra Leggi tutto
It was an okay read, but really this should be the end of the Alex Cross series. The tank, Mr Patterson, has run dry. I am a loyal fan, but this? It was sloppy. The title is really meaningless since it is apparent up until the very end that no one really wants to kill Alex Cross. Half of the story t Leggi tutto
I have read most of the Alex cross series (can you believe the 32nd one is coming out soon!!!!!) and this is DEFINITELY one of his best! I feel like I’ve written so many reviews for Alex Cross books and they are all saying a similar thing - AMAZING fast paced stories, all so unique from each other an Leggi tutto
4.5* The president’s kids have been kidnapped and Alex is called to find the children while dealing with a messed up perp with a seriously devastating past. On top of this, Nana brings home a kid from the streets to join the Cross family. This series seriously takes so many turns but at least it was Leggi tutto
I was a bit disappointed in this one. I know most discerning readers have left Patterson behind. But I've been with him for many years, long before he became a factory. No mistake, I don't read much of his stuff anymore. But the Alex Cross books were a guilty pleasure I never minded admitting. But th Leggi tutto
Mmmmm, let me think on it for a minute. I feel very torn trying to write a review on this book and if I am being honest I really wanted to like it. Like many readers, when you have read a series as long as this you want things to be great all the time, but inevitably there will come a point when may Leggi tutto
The next installment in the Alex Cross series. Just when you think the storyline can't become more captivating you soon find out that you are WRONG. I know there are many people that seem to dislike and have fallen off the Alex Cross wagon but I am not one of them. I have thoroughly enjoyed this ser Leggi tutto
