Roses Are Red by James Patterson

"Roses Are Red" is a great novel in all respects. The plot is very complicated and interesting. The Mastermind is masterminding some of the most audacious armed robberies and killing sprees that are totally mind-boggling. He also had a "great treat"  for his recruits after their job is done.

He is a dangerous psychopath  who is very brilliant, calculating and has a flair of remaining hidden. He is mysterious. You see his plan in action but he remains hidden. His modus operandi is different and totally unique.
Alex Cross and the FBI agent Betsy Cavalierre and the team of police investigators are puzzled. The mastermind watches all things. He can strike anyone. Even the Police and the FBI are not immune from his attack if he so wishes. Alex Cross and the FBI team led by Betsey Cavalierre are determined to nail him. He is actually having fun because he knows that he is on top of the game. He is in control.The Mastermind is indeed a mastermind pulling the strings.

"Roses Are Red" is indeed a masterpiece. It attest to James Patterson's pedigree as a great novelist. Patterson is imaginative and creates one of the most intelligent and dangerous psychopathic characters ever. It is a great thriller. It feels more like reading a Jeffrey Deaver.  Honestly I can't wait to read "Violets Are Blue".
