Merry Christmas Alex Cross

It's a snowy Christmas Eve and Detective Alex Cross is at home celebrating with his family. Just as Alex's wife Bree emerges from the kitchen with a bowl of homemade eggnog his phone rings with news that shatters the night: at a nearby home a family has been taken hostage - and the situation is spiralling out of control fast. Alex rushes to the scene and confronts the unthinkable: a father is threatening to murder his own children and his ex-wife. Then just as the insanity peaks a second horrific situation explodes - one that no one could have foreseen and that puts millions of people at risk. (web)
