Resumen del Editor

Lincoln Rhyme's cousin has been arrested for murder. The evidence clearly shows he did it, but Rhyme agrees to check things out. It turns out that the cousin, along with other people, has been wrongly convicted because the true killer knows every single detail about the lives of the victims he kills and the men he sets up to take the fall for those crimes.

Rhyme, Sachs and the rest of the team have to find out who at the huge, ominous data mining company is getting access to this information. Meanwhile the villain realises he's being pursued and turns his knowledge of data and information into a weapon...

A consumate writer and narrator who do not

A consummate writer and narrator who do not disappoint. The Lincoln Rhyme series of murder/ mysteries continues with a solid story supported by the usual assortment of regular characters. A serial killer whose existence was previously unknown, a trip to the U.S. to work with inhospitable and inept investigators and the emergence of a young rising star in the Rhyme entourage, all woven into the multi faceted book Jeffery Deaver is so renowned for.

Excellent!

As usual, Mr Deaver ticks all the boxes. No question remained unanswered when I finished the last chapter. The topic of data mining is even more mainstream today and everybody should listen to this book, even just to have a small understanding of the impact of online activities.

Pleasantly surprised

If have read (listened to) other Jeffery Deaver books, but no others in the "Rhyme and Sachs" series. I got this one on special, so I was happy to "come in late". The author did a good job of providing enough back story to let you know where the main characters were at (mostly scarred by previous thrillers!).
This story follows the standard rules of a thriller, but the execution is very good - keeping my interest the whole way.
The narrator was ok, but not great. Maybe because I have recently listened to "On a Pale Horse", which he also narrated, and his distinctive tone did not seem quite right in this different context.
Overall, if you like this sort of thing, you should like this.

Great book
