Riassunto

Now the Mastermind is in prison, Alex Cross is ready to leave the Washington Police Force. And, finally, Alex has met a woman, Jamilla Hughes. With Nana and the kids, he is talking about the future. Until John Sampson arrives and begs him to take on one last case - his best friend has been accused of an horrific triple murder. Three women were knifed at an Army base. His fingerprints and DNA have been found - but Sampson's friend swears he has been framed, and that Alex is his only hope...Uncovering evidence of a series of suspicious murder convictions, Alex and Sampson are determined to infiltrate the closed world of the military. But what is the army trying to hide? And do the mysterious symbols daubed on the homes of the accused mean that there are more sinister forces at work? With his trademark razor-sharp plotting and adrenaline-filled action, James Patterson takes us on a sensational rollercoaster tale of suspense, politics, and intrigue that proves once again that he is, quite simply, in a class of his own.

Recensione:

'If there really were human superheroes, Alex Cross would be at the head of the class...and, with each instalment in the series, Patterson makes sure his superhero gets bigger and better while at the same time becomming more vulnerable.' (New York Times)

'The best Cross yet...everything clicks in this novel, from Patterson's patented short chapters to the whiplash plotting' Publishers Weekly 7/10/02 (Publishers Weekly)

'As always, Patterson writes fluidly and evocatively, and some images, drawn from reality as they are, are extremely uncomfortable, but that is not going to stop people from reading. And that is just as well, because we could all learn a lot from Alex Cross' Chichester Observer 17/10/02 (Chichester Observer)

'Patterson knows where our deepest fears are buried... There's no stopping his imagination.' (New York Times Book Review)

'Four Blind Mice is intriguing, exciting, and as frightening as the news' West Australian Arts & Entertainment 3/2/03 (West Australian Arts & Entertainment)
