When a U.S. senator is found murdered in his Georgetown home, the only clue is a mysterious rhyme signed "Jack and Jill" promising more murders. Meanwhile, in Washington D.C., the beaten body of a little girl turns up in front of an elementary school. Is there a connection in the killings? As Alex Cross, homicide detective, pieces the facts together, the killers strike again, and again. Suddenly, no one in Washington is safe, not even the President.
In Washington, two lots of serial killers compete for the limelight. One lot kills famous people as they work their way up to the president, the other kills black children in ever-growing numbers. Black deputy police chief Alex Cross leads a manhunt.
