About this listen

The #1 bestselling kid detective is back! Mysteries, crime-solving, homeroom—all in a day's work for Ali Cross.

Ali Cross has always looked up to his father, the famous detective Alex Cross. And after helping to solve two big cases, Ali knows he has what it takes to follow in his father's footsteps. Eager to keep solving crimes, Ali and his friends hack into police calls and go to crime scenes to watch the detectives at work—and try to crack the cases themselves.

But when Ali witnesses something horrible, he has to grapple with tough questions about what it means to be a detective, and a detective's son. Will Ali find a way to follow in his father’s footsteps . . . or will he be the one in danger’s path?

Lots of language for a kids/teen book, boring

So, we've enjoyed the first two books but they're getting progressively worse. What does the author do when we can't find a good compelling story? Add language, and a pretty good amount. Adding course language doesn't make up for lack of plot and a compelling story.

This seems to be a problem with famous authors like Patterson. Rather than trying hard, they just throw something together knowing it will sell (and still get high ratings). Unfortunately, there are new authors who are way better but can't be given a chance and judged so much harder.

I'd say a big pass and maybe look to the Theodore Boone series.
