Along Came a Spider

Title: Along Came a Spider

Author: James Patterson

Pages: 12 discs?

Genre: Mystery/Thriller

Grade: B+

Synopsis: This is the first Patterson novel with Alex Cross (It's also the first Patterson book that I've read).  Cross is an African-American detective working in the poor areas of DC.  He is pulled into a case where the son of The Secretary of the Treasury and the daughter of an American movie star are kidnapped by a deadly psychopath teacher at their private school. 

My Review: Sometimes you're just in the mood for a thriller and this story did not disappoint.  It's not a book for the fainthearted as the kidnapper is a major psychopath and doesn't hold anything back.
