Product Description
The
toughest cases hit closest to home.
Alex Cross
left his hometown, and some awful family tragedies, for a better life
with Nana Mama in Washington, DC. He hasn't looked back.
Now his cousin Stefan has been accused of a horrible, unthinkable
murder, and Cross drives south with Bree, Nana Mama, Jannie, and Ali
to Starksville, North Carolina, for the first time in thirty-five
years. Back home, he discovers a once proud community down on its
luck, and local residents who don't welcome him with open arms. As
Cross steps into his family home, the horrors of his childhood flood
back--and he learns that they're not really over. He brings all his
skill to finding out the truth about his cousin's case. But truth is
hard to come by in a town where no one feels safe to speak.
Chasing his ghosts takes Cross all the way down to the sugarcane
fields of Florida, where he gets pulled into a case that has local
cops needing his kind of expertise: a string of socialite murders with
ever more grisly settings. He's chasing too many loose ends--a brutal
killer, the truth about his own past, and justice for his cousin--and
any one of the answers might be fatal.
In Cross
Justice, Alex Cross confronts the deadliest--and most
personal--case of his career. It's a propulsive, edge-of-your-seat
thrill ride that proves you can go home again--but it just might kill
you.
