Purchase options and add-ons

In this thrilling novel from a New York Times bestselling author, 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 baffled. 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 organized crime-is behind this business.

 

Even as he admires the FBI's vast resources, Alex grows impatient with the Bureau's clumsiness and caution when it's 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 he might have hoped.

    Note to Readers! Most of the erotica titles are now "Adult" filtered by Amazon. The best way to see all my titles is by selecting my author bio page.

    More about me, I write naughty tales to entertain my readers. The characters I pen have sexual appetites that are a little kinky at times and explore ideas that may be a little scary or even dangerous to some people.

    My writing can range from spicy to the forbidden, and I'm not afraid to deliver the kinds of taboo stories my readers crave. Besides writing, I also love tattoos, leather, exhibitionism, BDSM, silk ties, and four poster beds surrounded by mirrors.

    **Amazon has decided most my titles are too hot to stock the shelves. You can find 15 additional adult titles at Smashwords.

The only downside is I can't stop spending money on this Alex cross series. Each book including this one is very well written and I fly through them. This is James Patterson at his best. I highly recommend it.

My paperback arrived with a tear in the bottom corner next to the spine. It appeared to be a new injury, possibly in packing? But it wasn't mentioned in it's description and would have down graded it's condition if known. I would have passed on it had I been made aware. The rest of the bk was in good condition, and I did enjoy the tale.

3.0 out of 5 stars Abrupt ending to the novel " The Big bad Wolf"
Reviewed in India on May 9, 2020
Verified Purchase
This Kindle book ends abruptly, without a proper ending. The FBI are transporting the Wolf's double, who has betrayed him, from one jail to the other. The original Wolf mounts a massive attack on the convoy, gets into the van where his double is being held, and fires a rocket launcher directly into his face. Abrupt end of the novel, with the Wolf still at large. I thought that there may have been some chapters missing, but when i looked at the bottom right of my Kindle , I saw the figure 100%. Such a thing has happened once before with another novel, but I cannott remember its name now. My contact numbers are the following:. rumski30@gmail.com. and, +91 9323178165.
