Cross My Heart

"Detective Alex Cross is a family man at heart -- nothing matters more to him than his children, his grandmother, and his wife, Bree. His love of his family is his anchor, giving him the strength to confront evil in his work. One man knows this deeply, a genius set on proving that he is the greatest criminal mind of all, and he uses Alex's strength as a weapon against him. When the ones Cross loves are in danger, he will do anything to protect them. But if he even tries, they will die."--back cover.
