From the bestselling author of The Bone Collector and Devil's Teardrop comes this spine-chilling new thriller that pits renowned criminalist Lincoln Rhyme against the ultimate opponent -- Amelia Sachs, his own brilliant protege.

A quadriplegic since a beam crushed his spinal cord years ago, Rhyme is desperate to improve his condition and goes to the University of North Carolina Medical Center for high-risk experimental surgery. In a twenty-four hour period, the sleepy Southern outpost of Tanner's Corner has seen a local teen murdered and two young women abducted. And Ryhme and Sachs are the best chance to find the girls alive.

The prime suspect is a teenaged truant known as the Insect Boy, so nicknamed for his disturbing obsession with bugs. Rhyme agrees to find the boy while awaiting his operation. Rhyme's unsurpassed analytical skills and stellar forensic experience, combined with Sachs's exceptional detective legwork, soon snare the perp.

But Sachs disagrees with Rhyme's crime analysis and so ensues a battle of wits and forensics between Rhyme and Sachs, his best friend and soul mate.

    Finally!

    Finally I finished this book... I love reading in English, but it requires time and quiet, so ... holiday!
    The plot is intriguing, Rhyme is always Rhyme, his relationship with Amelia is finally growing up, so the story is open to new adventures!
    Deaver's writing is fluent and plain, even in English.

    Jeffrey Deaver and Linconl Rhyme are a combination that will keep you in the mistery until the very last page. The book has a very different plot from "The Bone Collector" and "The Coffin Dancer" and still it is unputdownable.
