I read this book because it's in my collection, but do not recall anything whatsoever about it. The description of the book might be why. It sounds awful to me and nothing like any book I would ever enjoy. I doubt I'll read it again since the first time wasn't memorable at all.
Good read. Though a bit over the top. A person only known as The Wolf has the capacity to single-handedly destroy parts of the world. And, in a world of heightened security and technology nobody had a clue about his (or is it her) identity. The Wolf was invincible. Will Cross find The Wolf and save the world? Lots of crazy twists and turns at the end in typical Patterson fashion. Easy to read. Short chapters. Enjoyable nonetheless.
Listened to it as audiobook. They jumped around alot, had alot of different characters, locations, etc, so it was hard to follow. I listened to the previous few as an audiobook, but they stayed more focused.

"Minutes after soldiers evacuate a Nevada town, a bomb completely destroys it. On vacation, FBI agent Alex Cross gets the call: the blast was perpetrated by the Wolf. A supercriminal and Cross's deadliest nemesis, the Wolf threatens to obliterate major cities, including London, Paris, and New York. Then evidence reveals the involvement of a ruthless assassin known as the Weasel. Could these two dark geniuses be working together? Now with just four days to prevent an unimaginable cataclysm, Cross is catapulted into an international chase of astonishing danger --- and toward the explosive truth about the Wolf's identity, a revelation that Cross may not survive."

An okay suspenseful novel.

Another disappointment in the Alex Cross series. The plot went nowhere and the ending was terrible. I must be a sucker for punishment as I’m hoping the next one is better. Maybe I should try a stand alone novel instead
