Publisher's summary

New York City is thrown into chaos by the assaults of the Bone Collector, a serial kidnapper and killer who gives the police a chance to save his victims from death by leaving obscure clues. The cops go to Lincoln Rhyme, an ex-NYPD forensics expert left paralysed after an accident on the job. Rhyme reluctantly postpones his ambitions towards suicide and puts together a forensic investigation team, enlisting as his eyes and ears young police officer Amelia Sachs.

Narrator seared a hole in my eardrum

Great story, but how did this narrator convince anyone he should do this. He puts on these accents for different characters that would be screamingly funny if he wasn’t being serious

The Anxiety Of It All

I was hesitant at the beginning because of all the nitty gritty about police protocol. But a few chapters in I was totally hooked. I’m definitely getting another one of his books. It’s been two decades since I read this genre and I’m glad our book club picked this one.

Well I'll be damned!

It's been years since a crime story twist got me like this one. It's great when a book makes your jaw drop in surprise.
The narration of the character Delrey was terrible, but the rest were good.

Well Worth it.

I’ve always loved the movie and knew the book would be better but the performance of the narrator made it an incredible book.
Fantastic character distinction in his voice, I’ll listen to this again and again.
