The fourth book in the Alex Cross series.

The fourth book in the Alex Cross series. For Suzie and Diamond Jack. It was the previous fall and the circumstances couldn’t have been any worse for either of us. We had been thrown together - smashed together someone said to me once - at the homicide scene of a sweet baby girl named Shanelle Green. Christine was the principal of the school that Shanelle attended, and where I was now delivering my own kids.

Alex Cross is back-and so is a raging and suicidal Gary Soneji  . See a Problem? We’d love your help. Details (if other): Cancel. Thanks for telling us about the problem. Alex Cross by. James Patterson (Goodreads Author).

Saying about the author of the book it is worth mentioning that he is largely known for his series about American psychologist Alex Cross. This book is one of these thriller novels about, probably kn. .wn to the reader by the earlier Cross novel, Jack, Jill, the principal at his children's school, and Cross in love with her. The plot is centered around the escape of a criminal, an old Alex’s enemy, whose target is Cross and his family, let alone a ruthless serial killer whose murders are monstrous. Running the danger, Cross is nearly murdered in his own home, through.

Cat and Mouse" is a very appropriate title for this thriller. I love James Patterson books!! Full of suspense and action. I enjoyed reading about the Cross Family and Alex's new love. Reading his first book, I was a little squeamish with the gore. But, that has taken a back seat to the on-edge suspense in his writing.

Reviews about Cat and Mouse (7):
POFOD
Four down, twenty-one Alex Cross novels to go. Cat and Mouse is easily the best one of the series so far. A lot can happen in twenty-one books. See why.

The Ugly: I have mentioned the fact that I don’t like the constant jumping between first and third person views. I like it even less when there are two characters who give first person views. That’s what happened here. Not only did we get the point of view of Cross, we also got the point of view of one Thomas Pierce. It was pointless. Sure, Alex needed to be taken out of the story for a bit, but we didn’t need the frontal view of Pierce.

The Bad: I’m not one to frown upon a sex scene in a book or movie. I don’t mind them as much as other people, whether they are warranted or unwarranted doesn’t matter. But here, I don’t know what it was. I’m thinking it’s the fact that Christian’s husband just died six months before this book came out and Cross was indirectly involved in his death. It just seemed unethical on Cross’s part, and unrealistic on Christian’s part. I know if I lost someone it would definitely take me more than six months to get over that person. And the only reason this is in the bad is because I know that people are built differently. It just bothers me is all.

The Good: One thing that hurt the other books was the case loads in the book for Cross. It was like he was working three to four different cases in one book. Here, he was working one case until it was time to move on to the next case. I don’t mind the multi-case aspect, but make it believable at least. This one was believable. And it made the book all that much better.

Final Thoughts: I can’t say start with this book. I can’t even say don’t read the other books in the series. There are some that are standalone books like Jack and Jill, but this isn’t. It is part of the series that is a continuation to an end. But I would suggest reading it whether you read the other books or not.

Though I have enjoyed some parts of it, the overall plot is extremely poor; Mr Smith motivation shallow and his acts unnecessarily gruesome. If the woman name was Tess, there would not have been a such dangerous killer to chase...
Every other page there is a quote, an old saying, a proverb; once noticed it is difficult to ignore and results quite annoying

I am in the process of sending my son James Patterson books in order and he just finish reading this one and he loves this one the best so far. Little do he know. There are more good books coming. I have read it myself in the past and would read this one again.

I love this series. Quick reads and very addicting books. Patterson has to be one of my favorite authors by far and Alex Cross has had me hooked since book 1.

Thank you James Patterson for the Alex Cross series and I wonder if you have any idea how much joy and love people feel about reading your books. great job sir as usual.

Too many situations that would, in real life, be impossible or improbable. And how many times can they call the bad guy an alien? Hundreds, it seems.

Can’t help but wonder, though, if a confident black man actually thinks like Alex! As a retired elementary teacher, I find the children’s characters a bit unlikely.
This is the fourth in a series with Alex Cross. Mr. Patterson is brilliant in his moving characters around, and keeping you reading. "Cat and Mouse" is a very appropriate title for this thriller. Reading his first book, I was a little squeamish with the gore. But, that has taken a back seat to the on-edge suspense in his writing. Read these books in sequence to give you a good overview and base to continue reading.
