Ali Cross

By: James Patterson

Narrated by: Andre Blake, Zeno Robinson

Brought to you by Penguin.

The son of Alex Cross follows in his father's footsteps in this exciting new YA thriller from globally best-selling author James Patterson.

Ali Cross has always looked up to his father, former Detective and FBI Agent Alex Cross.

While solving some of the nation's most challenging crimes, his father always kept his head and did the right thing. Can Ali have the same strength and resolve?

When Ali's best friend Abraham is reported missing, Ali is desperate to find him. At the same time, a string of burglaries targets his neighbourhood - and even his own house. With his father on trial for a crime he didn't commit, it's up to Ali to search for clues and find his friend. But being a kid sleuth isn't easy (especially when your father warns you not to get involved!), and Ali soon learns that clues aren't always what they seem.

Will his detective work lead to a break in Abraham's case or cause even more trouble for the Cross family?
