Absolutely thrilling
The Vampire killings are extremely grotesque, but very intriguing, keeping Cross on his toes, and constantly looking over his shoulder. The Mastermind is still by his side, and one step in front of him. This is a real page-turner, and there is always that worry that his next partner will end up like his previous partners. Cross finally, and yes, finally puts the pieces together and confronts the Mastermind. Some how, I don't think this is the end. Patterson has hooked me with Cross, and I just can't get enough!
