Book Review: Jack and Jill by James Patterson (Alex Cross 3)


Alex Cross is back on the scene and thrown into another baffling and exciting case, or should that be cases. A US Senator is killed first by Jack and Jill then he is quickly followed by a well known journalist then a general.

The randomness of the victims is intriguing and it is great how the clues mount up and you get to read of the killers plans and how Cross finds the clues and interprets them.
Cross as ever has John Sampson his best pal by his side but the killers get a little too close to home when the killer targets pupils at his son's school. His family is also therefore embroiled in the plot mix too.

The Alex Cross series continues to impress and you want to move on to the next one even though you are exhausted from reading this volume 3.

Another 9/10 for me, the early Alex Cross thrillers are great.
