Description

New York Times bestselling author Jeffery Deaver returns with his next blockbuster thriller featuring forensic detective Lincoln Rhyme.

Amelia Sachs is hot on the trail of a killer. She's chasing him through a department store in Brooklyn when an escalator malfunctions. The stairs give way, with one man horribly mangled by the gears. Sachs is forced to let her quarry escape as she jumps in to try to help save the victim. She and famed forensic detective Lincoln Rhyme soon learn, however, that the incident may not have been an accident at all, but the first in a series of intentional attacks. They find themselves up against one of their most formidable opponents ever: a brilliant killer who turns common products into murder weapons. As the body count threatens to grow, Sachs and Rhyme must race against the clock to unmask his identity--and discover his mission--before more people die.

    Seemed contrived. Lots of filler. I gave up halfway through the book.

    Thoroughly enjoyable. You think there is room for one more scene after the last: This book is too good.

    This book was laborious to read, but I was determined to finish. There were too many characters that didn't seem to have a purpose. It seemed the author was trying to stretch it for length. When it finally seemed to make sense, it was over. I haven't read many of Jeffery Deaver's book, but it will be a long time before I read one of his again.

    Forced myself to read. Hoping it would get better...it didn't! I threw his last book in the trash....have read and loved his books for years. Not anymore...
