The latest installment in the Lincoln Rhyme series, 'The Broken Window' is a case a little closer to home in that it involves a close relation being the main (if not only suspect) in a murder.
Rhyme quickly deduces that this is the work of a master criminal who's MO includes making sure he has a fall guy set up. 'The Broken Window' is fascinating in terms of the realism of the world it describes, with the whole big brother fear brought to the forefront. The tendency to this means there is less high octane, heart pounding tension of the previous books in the series. Definitely worth reading for hardcore fans or first timers alike though I suggest the later start with the older books first for some background. At the very least ... Read More: >>More Details |

In this novel, Rhyme and Sachs are in North Carolina, as Lincoln Rhyme is about to go through a medical procedure, to help with his condition. However, Rhymes is met at the hospital, by the local sheriff (a cousin of one of Rhymes' friends), who asks for his help in tracking down a local troubled teenager, who it seems has murdered one man and kidnapped two young women.
I found this book an enjoyable read, from the start. As the cases progresses, you think it will be straight forward enough : examine evidence, catch kid, free women. But, then there is one twist followed by another, that throw you off track, and have you wondering who are the good characters, and who are the bad. It kept me very interested throughout. >>More Details |

I enjoy Jeffery Deaver books, and have read most of them. There is one thing that has started to irk me slightly about his writing and it is the fact that he has Done His Research, and you know what, he's going to tell you about it! It's been getting worse in recent books, and this is no exception. Within three pages Deaver crowbarred an essay on how kinesics works into the storyline. And not very elegantly either.
However once past that irritation the story picks up, and actually becomes very interesting. The characters are well-developed and the narative moves at a good pace, keeping you turning the pages. There are plenty of twists and turns, some more obvious than others. I thought that I had guessed an obvious plot development, and turned out to be completely ... Read More: >>More Details |

In this novel, the duo of Lincoln Rhyme and Amelia Sachs are on the case of an evil people trafficer, known only as the 'ghost'. The 'ghost' has just deliberately scuttled a cargo ship carrying his illegal immigrants, after locking them in the hold. However, a couple of families have escaped, and now he is ruthlessly on their trail, in the city of New York.
I found this novel a good read, if not quite a page turner. The combination of Rhyme and Sachs is always interesting, although, I feel, the large cast of characters, around them, from the different law enforcement agencies, can sometimes be a bit unwieldy, and on few occasions I had to think as to which character, belonged to which agency. I thought there were a couple of small drawbacks to the book. Firstly, there ... Read More: >>More Details |

In the Vanished Man, a killer is using every trick in the magicians manual, to murder innocent victims, and to lead the police in one direction then another. Has Lincoln Rhyme meet his match?
At first, I found this book an enjoyable read. However, I felt, there were too many twists and turns, even by this author's standards. Some of the events and 'misdirections' (of which there is many!!) used by the killer seemed highly improbable to me, and had me thinking they were too far fetched, to be believed. I felt this undermined the storyline, and as the book progressed, I found myself becoming less and less interested in what the final outcome would be. Not a terrible book, but, certainly not the best, from this author. >>More Details |

I have been a huge fan of Deaver's books since The Bone Collector. However, despite repeated efforts to get into The Cold Moon, I had to give up on it only after a third of the way through. For as long as I was able to stay with The Cold Moon, I found, atypical of Deaver's other Lincoln Rhyme books, the bad guys to be one-dimensional and uninteresting, the plot to be slow-moving and filled with excessive detail about the "science" involved in the investigation, there was too little action and the action that did occur was somewhat unbelievable and convoluted, and that Deaver provided nothing new in terms of developing the relationship between Lincoln Rhyme and Amanda Sachs. Perhaps if I had the patience to continue reading The Cold Moon my opinion would have been different; but after reading many ... Read More: >>More Details |

An attempt is made on the life of a high school student, researching her ancestry in a museum. The big question is why was she attacked, for no apparent reason, was it to do with something in her family's distant past?
This book is an enjoyable read. The plot has a number of great twists in it, the people in it are interesting, and nothing is, as it seems. >>More Details |
