Resumen del Editor

Detective Alex Cross has never believed in vampires. But when two joggers are found slain in a manner that suggests a macabre ritual, he has to reconsider. Someone believes in vampires enough to have committed a series of bizarre murders that appear to be the work of one. Local police are horrified, and even the FBI is baffled.

Cross takes on the case and plunges into a netherworld of secret clubs and role-players, a world full of poseurs and playactors - and someone demented enough to have crossed the line from dark ritual to real blood. At the same time, a lethal super-criminal from Cross' past - known as the Mastermind - is stalking him, taunting him, and threatening everything he holds dear. Cross has never been closer to defeat, or in greater danger. In a shocking conclusion, Alex Cross must survive a deadly confrontation - only to discover at last the awful secret of the Mastermind.

Great story, love the Happy Ending!

It’s been so many years since I’ve read this series that I’m enjoying each book all over again! Can’t believe how many details I’d forgotten. I’m glad I’m reading one after the other because I feel like I’m watching a TV series or show. Oh boy this is a really good one! So glad Alex finally figured out who I Mastermind is and the murders he’s responsible for. Really enjoyed this story, and so glad to finally get a happy ending! No crazy, demented murderers hiding somewhere ready to attack him, and his family and friends. Though I know what’s going to happen, because I’ve read through Book 30, it’s still feels good to get a happy ending for a change. I’m always delighted to hear from Christine! The narrator was excellent, as well as the story!

The best one. Ever!

Great narration and great story. My favorite so far in all aspects. We’ll see how is the next book. This one, highly recommended!

Alex Cross

Would love to listen to ALL of Patterson's "Alex Cross" books on tape as I travel "'cross" North America.

Different style Alex Cross. Enjoyed it

this storyline is unique and engaging. there are a couple expected poor twists, but the narration and story is certainly entertaining. would recommend

yay! I was excited when Craig went down

Kyle CraIg's long drawn out story is finally over for now!!!!! this was my 7th JP audible in very quick succession and knowing that KC was the villian for the entire book made this one difficult at times. still a fantastic book!!! -the 2nd time around.

The Bluest Brain

As the novel sweeps in with intrigue and builds suspense, it also characterizes hero Dr. Alex Cross as a man in full. He uses his wit, charm, and mental and physical strengths to deliver justice to the evildoers. If anyone wants to read a tale full of power and bravado, “Violets Are Blue” is the go-to novel for a wild ride.

so good!

These books are so good! Every time I think they can't get better, they do! This one was a nail biter!
