Washington D.C. faces an unprecedented threat as a pair of killers calling themselves "Jack and Jill" embark on a deadly game targeting the city's most powerful figures. Their first victim is Senator Daniel Fitzpatrick, assassinated in his Georgetown home by a duo who operate with military precision. The male killer, using the alias "Jack," films the execution while his female accomplice "Jill" assists. They leave behind cryptic notes suggesting their murders are political commentary on "America at the end of its century." Meanwhile, in Southeast Washington, a very different predator lures seven-year-old Shanelle Green with colorful balloons in Garfield Park. The stark contrast between these crimes immediately establishes the novel's central tension: while a senator's murder dominates headlines, a child's disappearance barely registers in the news - a damning reflection of the city's social and racial divides. Detective Alex Cross is awakened at 3:30 AM by his partner John Sampson with news of Shanelle Green's murder just four blocks from his own home. After checking on his sleeping children - Damon and Jannie - Cross heads to the crime scene, the proximity underscoring how he, unlike Washington's elite, lives in the very community being terrorized. Cross and Sampson spend the morning canvassing the neighborhood, hearing whispers about a child predator nicknamed "Chop-It-Off-Chucky." Despite his dedication to these cases, Cross is summoned to investigate the Jack and Jill murders. Despite his protests about abandoning the Southeast cases, Cross is forced to accept with a pointed question from the Commissioner: "Do you still want to be a cop?" This moment crystallizes how law enforcement priorities are determined by victims' social status rather than the severity of crimes.
