Detective Alex Cross makes his second appearance in the worldwide No 1 bestseller that also became a No 1 box office hit as a film starring Morgan Freeman - now reissued in striking new cover style.

Alex Cross is about to be thrust into a case he will never forget. This time there are two killers, preying on opposite sides of America. One is terrorising Los Angeles with a series of unspeakable murders. The other is abducting beautiful, intelligent women on college campuses on the east coast.

But the truly chilling news is that both elusive masterminds are co-operating, communicating ... and competing.
