“Oh what a tangled web we weave….” And what a tale JP weaves for us in Mary, Mary! It’s a quick-moving, simple read, as Patterson is not one for a lot of detail. The driving plot moves forwards at warp speed and is totaling engaging. The format makes much of this possible. The chapters are very fleeting, only a couple pages sometimes. There’s lots of white space, and I really liked the font used in the printing (as these eyes get older, crisp, clear print is very helpful). I knew I could set the book down anytime and easily pick it up again and find my place. Problem was–I didn’t want to place it down.
Super sleuth/cop/child psychiatrist/FBI agent, Alex Cross, is on the Job again. He’s supposed to be on trip at Disneyland with his family tree, but we all know how that goes. When Hollywood beauties start being viciously murdered, he gets called in, supposedly for a quick evaluation of the situation. But, as permanently, once he’s in, he’s all in. The maniacal killer appears to be a woman named Mary Smith, but is it really? Whoever it is, “she’s” crass and evil for sure. She’s bold enough to send emails to a LA Times editor/reporter describing each of her kills. Dr. Cross isn’t convinced she’s who the LAPD and the local FBI bureaucrats reflect she is. The murders become more and more bizarre and then the killer starts killing outside the box and things get really confusing.
In the meantime, Alex has some personal problems, as usual. He’s in a battle with ex- lover, Christine, over baby Alex, who Papa Alex likes more than life. Nana Mama, Jannie, and Damon are holding down the home front, managing well enough as they permanently do; and a new lady comes into Alex’s life as the tale goes along. Day even has a girlfriend, a new experience for this new teen. (One thing I like about Patterson’s portrayal of Alex’s kids (who some reflect are too perfect) is the fact that they’re loving, respectful youngsters, unlike the way children are so regularly described on TV and in the movies…as mouthy, disrespectful brats. Let’s hear it for Jannie and Day!)
I had to LOL on page 361 when Alex thanks a porter for helping him with some boxes and the porter responds, “No problem.” Alex questions himself the same question I’m sure many of us question ourselves these days…”When and how did the axiom “you’re welcome” disappear from the language?”
Delight in.

The title of this entry says it all. Just like all the additional Alex Cross novels, I could not place it down. Now I will patiently wait for the next.
