Two killers, one operating in America — one in Europe — believe Alex Cross is the only worthy opponent in the deadly game each has planned. And Alex must contend with something he hasn't known since the loss of his wife: he's falling deeply in love, and this romance will make him, and her, all the more vulnerable.... Gary Soneji is back. He vows his last act on earth will be taking the life of Alex Cross. But first he wants some fun, and Union Station, Washington, and Penn Station in New York are scenes of chaos as Soneji creates a train ride to hell. With time running out, Cross must predict Soneji's next move: the lives of thousands of innocent commuters hang in the balance.

Review of 'Cat & Mouse (Alex Cross Novels)' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

The plots are somewhat interesting, and the characters were engaging in the first few books, but the writing level in this series is quickly plummeting. The excessive use of exclamation points distracts from already lukewarm prose. A few uninspiring extended sex scenes seem totally out of place. I suppose this is what comes of having ghostwriters cranking out novels.
