      In the thirty-second installment of the globally bestselling series, a serial killer is targeting America's top legal minds, prompting Detective Cross to step in. As he investigates the brutal murders, his wife, Bree, and best friend, John Sampson, mysteriously vanish during a perilous mission. With the stakes higher than ever, Cross is driven by three urgent goals: find Bree and John, escape the deadly situation, and ensure his own survival. Failure is not an option, as it would mean the end for the House of Cross. The series has garnered immense praise, with critics highlighting Patterson's exceptional storytelling talent. USA Today asserts that he never disappoints, while Lee Child emphasizes that such success is rooted in remarkable natural storytelling ability. Harlan Coben calls Cross a legend, and Lisa Scottoline notes that the series continually improves. Nelson DeMille reflects on the impact of the first book, predicting it would make Patterson a household name, a title he has undoubtedly achieved. Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child laud Cross as one of the greatest fictional detectives of all time, solidifying his legacy in literary history.
