Kyle Craig

Kyle Craig is a fictional character and antagonist in James Patterson's series of novels featuring Washington, D.C. detective Alex Cross. Craig is introduced in the first novel in the series, Along Came a Spider (1993).

Craig, a Special Agent for the Federal Bureau of Investigation, is initially a close friend of Cross and assists the detective in his high-profile investigations, and also occasionally asks Cross for help with his own cases. However, the end of the 2000 novel Roses Are Red reveals Craig to be a criminal who calls himself "The Mastermind", having organized a series of brutal bank robberies and murders. He is eventually brought to justice by Cross. From Violets Are Blue onwards, Craig is one of Cross' most formidable adversaries. In Double Cross (2007), Craig has escaped from a maximum-security prison in Colorado.

In the film adaptations of Patterson's novels Kiss the Girls and Along Came a Spider, Craig is played by Jay O. Sanders. In the TV series Cross, a female version of the character, named Kayla Craig, is played by Alona Tal.
