This may be the final book on the list, but James Patterson is by no means finished with the Alex Cross series. He also finds plenty of Kay’s enemies, but none who would want her dead. But when he goes to Alabama looking for answers hidden in her past, he finds a world of corruption, lies, and secrets, firmly closed to outsiders.
He’d grown close to Kay when she was his patient closer than he had with any of the others. The question of who was behind the double homicide, and why, plagues Cross's mind. In a Bentley convertible behind a DC private school, Kay Willingham, a glamorous socialite, philanthropist, and the ex-wife of the vice president, is found in the arms of the school’s principal, Randall Christopher - both shot dead.
