Mary Mary By James Patterson

In the latest installment of the Alex Cross series, Patterson takes the reader into the mind of a Hollywood serial killer, "Mary Smith." While on vacation with his family, Det. Cross get called in to consulate with the LAPD. As more high profile Hollywood mothers are found dead with their faces brutally slashed, Alex Cross becomes convinced that "Mary Smith" may not be a woman after all. Great read, highly recommend although if you are new to the series you may want to start with the first Alex Cross book, Along Came a Spider.
