I really like Deaver and this one is no exception. He even throws in my favorite Deaver character Lincoln Rhyme.
I acn't remember when I read a book with so many twists! It truly keeps you guessing - nothing is as it seems, even at the end!

Fantastic read! Couldn't put it down...full of twists. Excellent.
I love Deaver I still haven't figured out who dunnit in any of his stories...heck I have given up and just enjoy the ride.
Great fiction about a serial killer named "the Digger".
Typical Deaver. A twisted, fun read with lots of interesting forensic-style "science" based on handwriting characteristics. I thoroughly enjoyed it and have read it several times.

The ending of this well-paced but truly deceptive thriller caught me off guard....Full of good characters and dialogue
