BOOK REPORT....DOUBLE CROSS

Double Cross - James Patterson

Product Description(Amazon.com)
Just when Alex Cross's life is calming down, he is drawn back into the game to confront a criminal mastermind like no other. The elaborate murders that have stunned Washington, DC, are the wildest that Alex Cross and his new girlfriend, Detective Brianna Stone, have ever seen. This maniac adores an audience, and stages his killings as spectacles in public settings. Alex is pursuing a genius of terror who has the whole city on edge as it waits for his next move. And the killer loves the attention, no doubt-he even sets up his own Web site and live video feed to trumpet his madness.

And in Colorado, another criminal mastermind is planning a triumphant return. From his supermaximum-security prison cell, Kyle Craig has plotted for years to have one chance at an impossible escape. If he has to join forces with DC's Audience Killer to get back at the man who put him in that cell--Alex Cross--all the better.

MY THOUGHTS:  This is book is book 13 in the Alex Cross series.  Instead of 1 criminal, Alex has 2 criminals to catch.  One, the Audience Killer,  is a master at setting up show stopping murders for everyone to see.  He's leading Alex and Detective Brianna Stone into a set-up with a criminal Alex has already put behind bars, Kyle Craig, former FBI agent, and really, really bad guy without a conscious.  Alex and Brianna are close to catching  the Audience Killer, but haven't quite got that last clue as to who he is.  But they keep digging and finally get the last piece of the puzzle, but there is a surprise at the end....guess who's there waiting for them?  I give this book 5.....
