  <default_description>In this latest thriller from perennial bestselling author James  Patterson, Washington cop Alex Cross gets involved in his partner's effort to save the life  of an old Army buddy who's facing execution for a horrendous and inexplicable  murder spree in North Carolina. The Army's evidence against Sergeant Ellis  Cooper, a decorated Vietnam vet, is overwhelming, which isn't surprising since  it's all been planted by a quartet of killers whose reason for framing the  erstwhile hero isn't revealed until long after they are. The big secret is who  set the murderers loose, and in true cliffhanger fashion, Patterson keeps it  under wraps until the very end. Meanwhile, his usual blend of action, violence,  fast pacing and uninspired-though-serviceable prose prevail, and will probably  do so all the way to the top of the bestseller lists. &lt;I&gt;--Jane Adams&lt;/I&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I really enjoyed this book.  Patterson is becoming author that might make my favorite list.  I was some how shocked that I found myself like his writing.  Here he had a couple of guys still effed up from the Vietnam War keeping my interest.  Like the other series I didn't start with book one.
