London Bridges - Paperback

by James Patterson (Author)

Alex Cross clashes with his two deadliest foes--in one pulse-pounding thriller!

Minutes after a mysterious platoon of soldiers evacuate a Nevada town, a bomb completely annihilates it.

While on vacation in San Francisco, FBI agent Alex Cross gets the call that a Russian supercriminal known as the Wolf is claiming responsibility for the blast. His terrifying objective: obliterate major world cities, starting with London, Paris, and New York. Mounting evidence also reveals the involvement of a ruthless assassin known as the Weasel. Could these two dark geniuses be working together?

Now with just four days to prevent an unimaginable cataclysm, Cross is catapulted into an international chase of astonishing danger. Surviving the explosive truth about the Wolf's true identity may be the most insurmountable obstacle.
