Synopsis "alex cross, run"

If Alex Cross stops running, he will die . . . three serial killers are on the loose, and they want revenge.Detective Alex Cross arrests renowned plastic surgeon Elijah Creem for sleeping with teenage girls. Now, his life ruined, Creem is out of jail, and he's made sure that no one will recognize him-by giving himself a new face. A young woman is found hanging from a sixth-floor window, and Alex is called to the scene. The victim recently gave birth, but the baby is nowhere to be found. Before Alex can begin searching for the missing newborn and killer, he's called to investigate a second crime. All of Washington, D.C., is in a panic, and when a third body is discovered, rumours of three serial killers send the city into an all-out frenzy. Alex's investigations are going nowhere, and he's too focused on the cases to notice that someone has been watching him-and will stop at nothing until he's dead. With white-hot speed, relentless drama, and hairpin turns, Alex Cross, Run is James Patterson's ultimate thrill ride.

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.
