Publisher's summary

A killer with all the skills of a master detective has made Alex Cross the subject of his deranged "investigation".

In a Virginia penitentiary, Alex Cross and his partner, John Sampson, witness the execution of a killer they helped convict. Hours later, they are called to the scene of a copycat crime. A note signed "M" rests on the corpse. "You messed up big time, Dr. Cross."

Was an innocent man just put to death? Alex soon realizes he may have much to answer for, as "M" lures the detective out of the capital to the sites of multiple homicides, all marked with distressingly familiar details - details that conjure up decades-old cases. Details that conjure up Cross family secrets. Details that make clear that M is after a prize so dear that - were the killer to attain it - Alex's heart would no longer have reason to beat.

PLEASE NOTE: This is the abridged edition. An unabridged version is also available.

Waste of an afternoon.

Really poorly written from an author who used to be fun and now has reached the time to stop these books. Alex cross was made to sound pretty ignorant for a world class detective. It honestly was comical to listen to in parts and that was not the desired tone!
