Really great and quick read. Had to keep reading to find out what was going to happen next. Was so great at the end when little Alex came back to live with Alex and his family. I thought that Christine would have moved back to the area though.
The first 2/3 of this book is mostly the Alex Cross work life balance crisis. It gets very irritating. The book is uneven and I really don't care about the Alex “Whoa is me, I have to work but don't want to leave my family because they give me crap about it” saga. There are long sections about his custody fight intermixed with quick visits to crime scenes. I think the writers realized they were about out of pages so they crammed the killer search into the last 1/3 of the book.
