Description

This time it was John Sampson’s turn, and in my opinion, he delivered an entertaining edge-of-your-seat thriller that kept my interest. This book is different in the sense that it focuses more on John Sampson and his investigation, while Alex Cross is man down. I remember reading the Alex’s first adventure, “Along came a Spider” and almost cried when Alex, then a widower, faced the loss of his new love in an ending twist I would never forget.

And while it’s obviously part of a bigger series, this one can stand alone as it’s own book (I’m an Alex Cross series newbie myself).Overall it’s a good read, maybe those that are more familiar with American politics and the history of US presidents.

Sampson will have to work solo for a time, at least until he can find a partner of his own to help diffuse all that is going on. Sampson must use his own strengths and experience to hunt down those who tried to kill his partner and best friend. As a long-time fan of the Alex Cross series, I was surprised to see a collaboration with this one as it has normally always been a James Patterson standalone series. The book delves into the character of John and his history which we wouldn’t have gotten if Alex was not sidelined. In the previous Alex Cross novels, the story was told from Alex’s point-of-view and this one was told from John’s point-of-view, which kept the same rhythm and flow without disrupting the storytelling style.

I appreciated that Patterson made politics approachable to the average person, of course taking literary license with what would and would not be feasible. D. has taken out one of the attackers and driven off and possibly wounding one or two of the others. I am actually rather surprised that this type of plotting hasn’t been done previously… And it’s about time.
