bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series __________________________________ Could a ghost
from his past take everything away from Alex Cross? Mere hours after witnessing the execution
of a killer he helped put behind bars Alex Cross is called to the scene of a copycat murder. A
note signed 'M' rests on the corpse: 'You messed up big time Dr. Cross.' Was an innocent man
just put to death? As the executed convict's family launch a vicious campaign against Cross
his abilities as a detective are called into question. The enigmatic 'M' lures Cross out of
Washington DC to the sites of multiple homicides all marked with distressingly familiar
details that conjure up decades-old cases and Cross family secrets. Details that make it clear
M is after a prize so dear that - were the killer to attain it - Cross's life would be
destroyed. __________________________________ 'Alex Cross is a legend.' HARLAN COBEN Readers
