The Cross house was twenty paces away and the proximity and sight of it made Gary Soneji's skin prickle. It was Victorian-style, white shingled, and extremely well kept. As Soneji stared across Fifth Street, he slowly bared his teeth in a sneer that could have passed for a smile. This was perfect. He had come here to murder Alex Cross and his family. (from the first line)
| When old enemy Gary Soneji, a prison escapee, joins forces with the enigmatic Mr. Smith, a mysterious new threat, the lives of psychologist-detective Alex Cross and his family hang in the balance, and it is up to physician and serial killer expert Thomas Augustine Pierce to step in before it is too late. Reissue. *Author: Patterson, James *Series Title: Alex Cross *Publication Date: 1998/11/01 *Number of Pages: 480 *Binding Type: Paperback *Language: English *Depth: 1.00 *Width: 4.00 *Height: 7.00 |

From the Publisher:
Alex Cross is back in a novel with a cast of characters more sinister and deadlier than ever. Gary Soneji, a dying prison escapee, is looking for revenge on Cross, while another insane killer is pursued by Thomas Augustine Pierce--a brilliant and relentless detective who may even be better than Cross. As the bodies pile up, and Cross is nearly murdered in his own home, the game of cat and mouse leads to one final trap, and it's anyone's guess who will survive. |
Annotation:
Alex Cross battles not one, but two vicious killers intent on seeing him lose their high stakes game--one that Alex never agreed to play.

Author Bio
James Patterson
James Patterson grew up in Newburgh, New York, 50 miles north of New York City. Valedictorian of his class at the Christian Brothers school, St. Patrick's, in 1965, Patterson graduated from Manhattan College with a degree in English. He first entertained the idea of becoming a writer in 1971 when he worked as a college student in a mental institution, a job that afforded him abundant time to read. He came up with the idea for his first novel during that time, and five years later, after 26 rejection slips, his first effort, "The Thomas Berryman Number", appeared in bookstores. Since that time, Patterson has written numerous best-selling thrillers featuring the sensitive, modern-day hero Alex Cross, including "Kiss the Girls", which was made into a major motion picture starring Morgan Freeman.
Praise
New York Times Book Review
"James Patterson has such a seething imagination, it's too bad this clunky writer can't rent out his ideas to authors with more polished literary skills. 'Cat & Mouse', another living nightmare for Alex Cross, the police forensic psychologist who goes to hell and back in this series, may lack style, but it has the raw (and bleeding) material for two thrillers." - Marilyn Stasio 11/23/1997
