The Burial Hour

De: Jeffery Deaver

Narrado por: Edoardo Ballerini

Forensic detective Lincoln Rhyme is back with his most harrowing case yet in this newest installment of Jeffrey Deaver's New York Times best-selling series.

A businessman snatched from an Upper East Side street in broad daylight. A miniature hangman's noose left at the scene. A nine-year-old girl, the only witness to the crime. With a crime scene this puzzling, forensic expertise of the highest order is absolutely essential.

Lincoln Rhyme and Amelia Sachs are called in to investigate. Soon the case takes a stranger turn: A recording surfaces of the victim being slowly hanged, his desperate gasps the backdrop to an eerie piece of music. The video is marked as the work of The Composer...

Despite their best efforts, the suspect gets away. So when a similar kidnapping occurs on a dusty road outside Naples, Italy, Rhyme and Sachs don't hesitate to rejoin the hunt. But the search is now a complex case of international cooperation - and not all those involved may be who they seem. Sachs and Rhyme find themselves playing a dangerous game, with lives all across the globe hanging in the balance.

Fun Italian Flare

Enjoyed the different setting for this story and a glimpse into Italy and Italian law enforcement.

Lincoln goes International

An entertaining read, if a touch slow to start... I enjoyed the fugitive in flight angle, and the friction between national jurisdictions.... Typically fascinating science,and the expected WTF twists... Had more of a pastoral feel in mood, as well as in setting... Last third or so of the book moves quickly with constant head jerking to keep sights on what's actually going on... Great characters as usual, and hoping to see Hercules, Dante`, and Stefan in future books... Some political aspects that those intransigent in viewpoints will likely bristle over, but felt they were presented evenly and fairly... Narration is absolutely excellent...

The Burial Hour

I was impressed with all the twist and turns. I hope Jeffery Deaver perused the Dragonfly Gargoyle theory.

another amazing book from Deaver!

I loved that it spanned to italy. great story with lots of twists and turns.

Another great book

I have enjoyed every book Jeffrey Deaver has put out I am going to download the next one

A really good Lincoln Rhyme novel

Except for the liberal politically correct bias, a very good story. I particularly liked the Hercule and Spiro characters and the way the story unfolded.
The narrator was excellent.
It is the burial hour for Europe.

Ruined it with Political crap.

Great Story started and lost as almost always in the overwhelming evidence that I can't even put together. That Lincoln is able to knit a cardigan with. Then ruins the whole thing with political crap. If you love Lincoln you will like this one. But most of my friends agree that the stories turns off in a way that leaves you wanting.

Great

Jeff always keeps me guessing in his books I always get excited when a new book comes out. He s a great story teller a this is another must read.

Fantastic...as always

I enjoy the Lincoln rhyme novels and Jeffery deaver is writing. This one did not disappoint when you think the story is gone one way he turned it changed it up at the end made it very interesting brought everything together really enjoyable read.
