About the Book:
Metro PD detective John Sampson stands in a crater in the middle of a DC street, calling in the bomb squad. “Dispatch, this is Sampson. Contact the FBI and the ATF. We’ve got a suspected terrorist attack here.”
In Chapel Hill, NC …
Alex Cross searches the apartment of a missing psychology grad student—his own son Damon. Has following in his famous father’s footsteps made Damon a target?
From FBI headquarters, in police stations, on airplanes, and at murder scenes, the detectives track crimes committed hundreds of miles apart. It will take more than distance to weaken the partnership of Sampson & Cross.
My Review:
I have read or listened to most of the Alex Cross novels and this is another good one in the series. I enjoyed John Sampson getting his own story. The pace of both stories are great and the topics could be out of today's news headlines. I enjoyed the novel. Even though it is part of a long running series, it reads fine on its own.
My rating: 4/5 stars.
