Ali Cross

My dad is a famous detective who taught me everything he knows. My friend has been missing for days. I'm going to find him. Everyone tells me I'm just like my father. When your dad is Alex Cross, that's a lot to live up to. But I've got to try. This is my very first case and my friend's life is on the line. If I inherited any of my dad's detective skills, it's time for them to kick in.

Like father, like son. Alex Cross – the brilliant DC detective who never gives up on a case. Ali Cross – the tenacious kid who’s determined to follow in his father’s footsteps. And the case that finally gives him a chance.

Ali knows Gabe Qualls better than anyone, so when his friend goes missing, Ali jumps right into action. Being Alex Cross’s son has taught him the skills he needs to solve the mystery: intelligence, persistence and logic.

One thing he didn’t inherit? Patience. Because Ali knows that with every day that passes without the police finding Gabe, the less likely it is that he’ll ever be found. And being Alex Cross’s son, he refuses to accept those odds.

Ideal for readers interested in childrens fiction.
