Query: What Happened?

I usually enjoy Patterson's novels, but like so many other reviewers, I was left baffled by this one. To me, it seemed as if he had no idea how to end the storyline and just picked the least likely person to be the 'villian.' I was literally trying to figure out if my book was missing a chapter or two or a dozen. Also, shouldn't he come up with a new twist by now? Why any of this is a shock to Alex Cross is beyond me, since everything that happens in this novel has happened to him in the previous novels.In some ways I hope he writes a new Alex Cross novel that explains the mess he made out of this one, but I won't be buying it in hardcover, that's for sure.
