The people vs. Alex Cross / James Patterson.

Alex Cross has never been on the wrong side of the law - until now. Charged with gunning down followers of his nemesis Gary Soneji in cold blood, Cross is being turned into the poster child for trigger-happy cops who think they're above the law. He knows it was self-defense. But will a jury see it that way? As Cross fights for his freedom, his former partner John Sampson brings him a gruesome video tied to the mysterious disappearance of several young girls. Despite his suspension from the department, Cross can't say no to Sampson. The illicit investigation leads them to the darkest corners of the Internet, where murder is just another form of entertainment. But as the prosecution presents its case, even those closest to Cross begin to doubt his innocence...
