About this ebook

In this action-packed thriller from the world’s most popular storyteller, Supreme Court Candidates are being murdered—and only Alex Cross and John Sampson can take on the killer.

The inspiration for #1 hit streaming show, Cross.

In Washington, DC… 
The president-elect is tapping the country’s brightest legal minds as candidates for the Supreme Court. 
Then one of them is gunned down.  
Another is stabbed.  
A third is murdered near midnight on a city street.  

Now it’s up to Detective Alex Cross, the FBI’s top expert in criminal behavior, to go inside the mind of a diabolical killer and protect the country’s best hope for justice.

“[Alex Cross’s] innate nature is to protect people…If he has a weakness, it’s his family, especially his children. They’re the chink in his armor. But aside from that, it’s tough to get at him.” Aldis Hodge, star of Cross on Prime Video
