Publisher's summary

Winner, 2017 APA Audie Awards - Thriller/Suspense

The toughest cases are the ones that hit close to home.

When his cousin is accused of a heinous crime, Alex Cross returns to his North Carolina hometown for the first time in more than three decades. As he tries to prove his cousin's innocence in a town where everyone seems to be on the take, Cross unearths a family secret that forces him to question everything he's ever known.

Chasing a ghost he believed was long dead, Cross gets pulled into a case that has local cops scratching their heads and needing his help: a grisly string of socialite murders. Now he's hot on the trail of both a brutal killer and the truth about his own past - and the answers he finds might be fatal.

Best Cross book ever

What did you love best about Cross Justice?

Real insight into who Alex Cross really is. The story of his childhood, family and parents really gave us an insight into who and why Alex is who he is.

What did you like best about this story?

How the different storylines intersected. The ending was ...WOW.

Have you listened to any of Ruben Santiago-Hudson’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Just as great.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The end.

Any additional comments?

I have read or listened to all the Alex Cross book and this one was my favorite.

A. Patterson classic

A good Patterson read with all of his classic multi plots. A good read while your hands are busy with needlework, art, or crafts

Another Alex Cross surprise

Just when you think there is nothing else going on in Cross' life you get a surprise. The story is not as full of killing and excitement as the past books. This is more about his family and childhood. I thought is was a nice twist, however, I need more serial killers.
The narrator were awesome!
