Dragged a bit in the beginning but a solid murder mystery/psych thriller that has held up over time

This is my very first time reading a James Patterson book. To say that I enjoyed learning about Alex Cross and then watching him figure out this mystery was exhilarating. I am definitely going to be reading the rest of the series.  There is a lot of suspense in a lot of turns.  I pride myself in the usually being able to see how a story will end. I definitely could not with this one.
