Interpretation Concering Books The Big Bad Wolf (Alex Cross #9)
Alex Cross battles the most ruthless and powerful killer he has ever encountered - a predator known only as "the Wolf. "Alex Cross's first case since joining the FBI has his new colleagues stymied. Across the country, men and women are being kidnapped in broad daylight and then disappearing completely. These people are not being taken for ransom, Alex realizes. They are being bought and sold. And it looks as if a shadowy figure called the Wolf - a master criminal who has brought a new reign of terror to organize crime - is behind this business in which ordinary men and women are sold as slaves. Even as he admires the FBI's vast resources, Alex grows impatient with the Bureau's clumsiness and caution when it is time to move. A lone wolf himself, he has to go out on his own in order to track the Wolf and try to rescue some of the victims while they are still alive. As the case boils over, Alex is in hot water at home too. His ex-fiancee, Christine Johnson, comes back into his life - and not for the reasons Alex might have hoped.Particularize Books Toward The Big Bad Wolf (Alex Cross #9)

3.5 starsThe first section of the book had me a bit worried. Alex is now an FBI agent, and everything kind of glosses over his training and the lack of relationship building he is participating in and then bam a hostage negotiation.... that is over faster than any on record. I was worried that this may have been the fizzle of my beloved Alex Cross....Enter the WOLF! LOVING this villain So much! He is despicable, he is narcissistic, he is all of the things that you love to hate in a villain. James
Dear Mr. PattersonWhile this book was an easy read, I must say that it must have been easy to write because you have done this 19 or so times before. This book was predictable up until the end. I do not appreciate the ending hanging there so that people will buy the next book to find out what happens. Sorry but that ploy will not work with me. I will not buy the next book. This cheap ploy to get me to buy book number 20 will not work. It wasn't even that good. And talk about drama, seriously you
I enjoyed this installment in the Alex Cross series. The villain (known as the Wolf) was okay but it wasn't as thrilling as some of the other Cross books I've read. I'm still going to read them all though because I love that Alex Cross is from DC and is a stand up black man and a good role model for all.
This book is one of the strongest one in this series so far for me. I found it really good.It ends in unresolved matters...so I of course have to start the next one! :D
I haphazardly discovered Patterson's, Alex Cross, when I grabbed a worn paperback, Violets Are Blue, off of an overstock rack in a used bookstore. I had no idea that I had chosen a book that was the 7th in a series of at least 17. After devouring my first Patterson novel, and falling head over heels in love with John Sampson, Cross' best friend and partner, as well as becoming quite smitten with Cross, I knew that I needed to start at Alex's beginning and go through the entire series.The Big Bad
