The charges: explosiveAlex Cross has never been on the wrong side of the law-until now. Charged with gunning down followers of his nemesis Gary Soneji in cold blood, Cross is being turned into the poster child for trigger-happy cops who think they’re above the law. Cross knows it was self-defense. But will a jury see it that way? The evidence: shocking As Cross fights for his professional life …
As Cross fights for his professional life and his freedom, his former partner John Sampson brings him a gruesome, titillating video tied to the mysterious disappearances of several young girls. Despite his suspension from the department, Cross can’t say no to Sampson. The illicit investigation leads them to the darkest corners of the Internet, where murder is just another form of entertainment.
The People vs. Alex Cross: the trial of the century
As the prosecution presents its case, and the nation watches, even those closest to Cross begin to doubt his innocence. If he can’t convince his own family that he didn’t pull the trigger with intent to kill, how can he hope to persuade a jury? But even with everything on the line, Cross will do whatever it takes to stop a dangerous criminal…even if he can’t save himself.

I enjoyed this latest in the Alex Cross series. This was a little different story line with Alex being on trial for committing murder. But, as usual, there is all kinds of twists and turns that keep you sitting on the edge of your seat.
This book has Alex’s kids playing a bigger part in helping solve the crime. And Ali does not disappoint.
Of the recent books James Patterson has written, this is one that I still enjoy. I feel like it’s still true to the author’s real form.
The Cross books are out of this world James Patterson is an excellent writer I finish his books in one day because I cannot stop reading it I love the characters love the plot love everything
Alex Cross is my favorite series!
Dr Cross is my favorite character among Mr Patterson’s books. I Have all of them from Alone Came A Spider to The People vs Alex Cross to his last book that’s under the Christmas tree that my son got for me. I can hardly wait to read it. I also have all 17 of the women murder club. I am building my library with hundred of other books of his.
I enjoyed this Alex Cross book immensely. It was a ‘true’ Patterson plot. Mini stories going on between the trial time and family time. Lots of twists to keep me on my toes trying to figure out how all the lines connected. Great read and will look for the next one for sure. The writing was superb…definitely Pattersonique.
All the Alex Cross novels are always great.
Love Alex Cross ANYTHING
Suspenseful. Jaw dropping ending. Could not put it down.
He did it again. Found a new way to surprise me and entertain me.
Great I enjoy Alex cross
Love all the Alex Cross books. Believe I’ Read most if not all of them. Haven’t found a bad one yet.
Not as good as the earlier Alex Cross books. These latest books seem to be written quickly and are just not as good.
Best of the series so far. Can’t wait for the next one.
Been reading Alex Cross books for a while. This one was just “OK.” The mystery in it is quite predictable. Video seems to “prove guilt,” but the video content is just too far fetched to believe. That was a disappointing plot. Too easy to predict the final outcome.
Enjoy the Cross series. Still fresh and keeps interest throughout each book.
I love all of James Patterson’s Alex Cross books.
Great page turning. Keeps you on the edge of your seat!
Another Patterson classic!
Good reading.
I really like the Alex Cross books. This book kept me interested and at times I got really worried about how things would turn out for Alex. It’s a book worth reading .
