Product Description:
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.
From the author Time magazine has called "the man who can't miss,"Double Cross has the pulse-racing momentum and electrifying thrills that have made James Patterson a #1 bestselling storyteller all over the world.

- A good stand-alone Alex Cross Book
I enjoyed listening to this stand alone audio book.While it is good to know some of the past adventures, this story is fully developped in this one book.Alex Cross follows the clues to solve the crime.Kyle Craig's appearance is a little convenient, setting up future Alex Cross adventures.I recommend reading this book if you are into reading the Alex Cross series.

- come one james!!
There aren't too many james patterson novels I haven't like but this one is in another category. If alex Cross is the leading crime fighter in America we're all in trouble.

He can't even give up his private practice where he is being scammed anyway. If he is such a great detective how ... Read More

- Alex Cross Double Cross
The book that I purchased from Acme under Amazon, Alex Cross, Double Cross was horrible.EVERY PAGE HAD PENCIL UNDERLINE on it in sections.The person also subtracted the number of pages read and wrote the answer at the beginning of each chapter.I will never order a book from ACME again.

- A little disappointed
After the "hype" about James Patterson's novels, I expected a bit more depth in the story. I think this plot was a little far-fetched. Not one of my best reads.
