Book description
Detective Alex Cross is pulled out of a family celebration and given
the awful news that his niece, Caroline, has been found brutally
murdered. Cross vows to hunt down the killer, and soon learns that
Caroline was mixed up in one of Washington's wildest scenes. And she
was not this killer's only victim.
The hunt for her murderer leads Alex and his girlfriend, Detective
Brianna Stone, to a place where every fantasy is possible, if you have
the credentials to get in. Alex and Bree are soon facing down some
very important, very protected, very dangerous people in levels of
society where only one thing is certain - they will do anything to
keep their secrets safe.
As Cross closes in on the killer, he discovers evidence that points
to the unimaginable - a revelation that could rock the entire world.
