NOW THE INSPIRATION FOR THE ORIGINAL SERIES 'CROSS' ON PRIME VIDEO

The charges: explosive

Alex Cross has never been on the wrong side of the law - until now. Charged with killing in cold blood, Cross is being turned into the poster child for trigger-happy cops.

The evidence: shocking

Cross knows it was self-defense. But, as the case against him builds, even those closest to him begin to doubt his innocence.

The People vs. Alex Cross: the trial of the century

With his whole life and career on the line, if Cross can't convince his own family that he didn't pull the trigger with intent to kill, how can he hope to persuade a jury?

Critic Reviews

It is told with a ferocious power and emotion that is quite impossible to ignore.
Fast-paced and action-packed.
It's no mystery why James Patterson is the world's most popular thriller writer ... Simply put: Nobody does it better. (JEFFERY DEAVER)
Behind all the noise and the numbers, we shouldn't forget that no one gets this big without amazing natural storytelling talent - which is what Jim has, in spades. The Alex Cross series proves it (LEE CHILD, bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series)
James Patterson is The Boss. End of. (IAN RANKIN, bestselling author of the Inspector Rebus series)
I wrote, "Along Came a Spider is the best thriller I've come across in many a year. It deserves to be this season's no. 1 bestseller and should instantly make James Patterson a household name." A household name, indeed. (NELSON DEMILLE)
James Patterson is the gold standard by which all others are judged. (STEVE BERRY, bestselling author of the Colton Malone series)
[Alex Cross] has become one of the greatest fictional detectives of all time, a character for the ages. (DOUGLAS PRESTON and LINCOLN CHILD)
Alex Cross is a legend. (HARLAN COBEN)
Patterson boils a scene down to the single, telling detail, the element that defines a character or moves a plot along. It's what fires off the movie projector in the reader's mind. (MICHAEL CONNELY)

I love Alex Cross stories, but this one is definitely lacking the 'normal' James Patterson spark. Very disappointing.
