Synopsis "four blind mice"

In this #1 New York Times bestseller, Alex Cross is ready to resign-but when his partner shows up with a case he can't refuse, he goes up against the most bone-chilling killers of his entire career.Detective Alex Cross is on his way to resign from the Washington, D.C., Police Force when his partner's oldest friend-a Vietnam veteran-is arrested for murder. He is subject to the iron hand of the United States Army, and the evidence against him is strong enough to send him to the gas chamber.Sampson is certain his friend has been framed, and Alex's investigation turns up evidence overlooked-or concealed-by the military authorities. Drawing on their years of street training and an almost telepathic mutual trust, Cross and Sampson go deep behind military lines to confront the most terrifying-and deadly-killers they have ever encountered. Behind these three highly skilled killing machines there appears to be an even more threatening controller. Discovering the identity of this lethal genius will prove to be Cross's most terrifying challenge ever.On his visits home, Alex must confront another, more harrowing mystery: what's the matter with Nana Mama? As he explores the possibility of a new relationship with a woman who offers him new hope, Alex must also confront the fact that his beloved grandmother is only human.

James Brendan Patterson, nacido en 1947 en Newburgh, Nueva York, es uno de los autores más leídos y prolíficos del mundo contemporáneo. Su capacidad para combinar intriga, ritmo ágil y giros inesperados lo ha convertido en un fenómeno editorial sin precedentes, con cientos de millones de libros vendidos a nivel global. Reconocido con premios como el Edgar y la National Humanities Medal, ha logrado además un impacto social notable gracias a su compromiso con la promoción de la lectura, destinando parte de sus ganancias a programas educativos y bibliotecas.

Un ejemplo de su versatilidad es The Idaho Four, donde aborda un caso criminal real con una mirada narrativa que mezcla investigación periodística y tensión novelística. Patterson demuestra así que no solo domina la ficción con sagas como Alex Cross o Michael Bennett, sino que también sabe adentrarse en el terreno de la no ficción con la misma intensidad, atrapando al lector en escenarios tan inquietantes como reales.
