Story4 out of 5 stars 40
Mr. Kelly is a lonely old man who rents the same video over and over. The flick is a noir classic based on a real-life unsolved bank heist and a million missing dollars. It's called Manhattan Is My Beat. That's the tape Rune is picking up from Mr. Kelly's shabby apartment when she finds him shot to death. The police suspect a robbery gone wrong, but Rune is certain the key to solving the murder is hidden somewhere in the hazy, black-and-white frames of Mr. Kelly's beloved movie.

Publisher's Summary
A highway patrol trooper notices something strange on the side of the road: a homemade cross, fashioned as a memorial. Except the date being 'remembered' is the following day - the day the police find a kidnapped teenage girl in the trunk of a car, left for dead.
Special Agent Kathryn Dance, the kinesics expert with the California Bureau of Investigation, is on the case. The teenage victim points her to an online community where accusations fly and the criticism turns from impartial to personal - and vicious. It looks as though the bullying went too far, and one teen has finally snapped.
Then further crosses appear. Now Dance must race against the clock to find the attacker before he can carry out his deadly plans for revenge....in the cyber world and the real.
Critic Reviews
"ROADSIDE CROSSES is a gripping story peopled with memorable characters. No surprise. Jeffery Deaver is grand master of the ticking-clock thriller." (Kathy Reichs)
"A masterclass in the art of misdirection. Jeffery Deaver dangles his red herrings artfully as he explores the dangerous overlap of the real world and the web. The eventual unmasking of the killer - after a double-twist - comes as a complete surprise." (Evening Standard
