Double Cross, half as good...

The latest instalment in the Alex Cross series. This was better than its predecessor "Cross" (which was more of a soap opera about Cross' family), but still not as good as the earlier Cross books. As usual, a fast paced read with some twists and turns on the way. If only Patterson could stop using the "Is he coming here? To kill me?" italics at the end of chapters then the book would be at least a little easier to read.
I'm sticking with the Cross series for now but it's a close run thing... The earlier books in the series are much better.
