Isn't his Alex Cross series is his premier series? Or at least the most popular. If so, by keeping other names off it even if a ghostwriter helps, he could be trying to maintain that status. I know with other authors I've had less than stellar experiences when they work with co-authors so by having one series "his" alone, at least in appearance, he could be trying to keep some people who want the "true" experience.
I tried to find any indication either way on these but didn't find anything.
