About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
Now an Amazon Prime series starring Aldis Hodge as Alex Cross. This is the very first thriller in James Patterson's international bestselling series featuring forensic psychologist Alex Cross.
Two children have been kidnapped from an elite private school in Washington DC, and Detective Alex Cross is charged with finding them.
The kidnapper's identity is quickly determined as one of the children's teachers. But capturing him is the true challenge.
As Cross gets pulled deeper into the strange world of the kidnapper, it becomes clear he is far more dangerous than anyone could have anticipated.
'Alex Cross is a legend' Harlan Coben
'A character for the ages' Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child
'Alex Cross. . . only gets better and better' Lisa Scottoline
'No one gets this big without amazing natural storytelling talent - which is what Jim has, in spades. The Alex Cross series proves it' Lee Child

Saw movie years ago
Love JP just finished his Billy Harney books plus many of his stand alone books, so thought I would start the Alex Cross series and argh the narrator is beyond dreadful, it would of been brilliant if someone else narrated, it was like pulling teeth, Think I’ve been spoilt by other superb narrators like Jeff Harding, Steven Weber etc such a shame as I love the Alex Cross character.
