The Broken Window

De: Jeffery Deaver

Narrado por: George Guidall

The eighth instalment of the bestselling Lincoln Rhyme series.

Companies know everything about you. So does he. He knows you, better than you even know yourself. And he is using his knowledge to plan your death. But you are not his only victim. He is also watching your killer. He is about to get away with the perfect murder ...

Rhyme's cousin has been arrested for murder - and while the evidence clearly shows he did it, Rhyme agrees to check things out. All too soon the entire case is turned on its head when it turns out that his cousin, along with others, is being cleverly framed by a killer who knows far too much about his victims...

“Deaver never disappoints, and this novel shines.” INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY.

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
