Excellent Lincoln Rhyme novel. I believe this is the 5th in the series. Follow Amelia Sachs and Lincoln Rhymes as the seek out "the conjurer".
Best selling author of the Stone Monkey. LA Times calls his novels "thrill rides between covers". NY TImes hails them as "dazzling" The Times of London crowns him "the best psychological thriller writer around. He is a master of ticking-bomb suspense. A thriller.
A very good Lincoln Rhyme novel. A lot of magic and tricks make up this story. Deaver is one of my favorite authors.
Excellent, excellent book. Esp. like the periodic summaries of the evidence, really helps keep track of things. This book is a must-read for all fans of the basic mystery novel.

A KILLER FLEES THE SCENE OF A HOMICIDE AND LOCKS HIMSELF IN A CLASSROOM.WITHIN MINUTES,THE POLICE HAVE HIM SURROUNDED.WHEN A SCREAM RINGS OUT,FOLLOWED BY A GUNSHOT,THEY BREAK DOWN THE DOOR. THE ROOM IS EMPTY.
This is a great Lincoln Rhyme book, with a couple of memorable characters who get pulled into the mystery, as well as the creepy killer.
"It begins at a prestigious music school in New York. A killer flees the scene of a homocide and locks himslef in a classroom. Within minutes the police have him surrounded. When a scream rings out, followed by a gunshot, they break down the door. The room is empty.
A brilliant thriller that pits a forensic criminologist and his partner against an unstoppable killer with 1 final horrific trick up his sleeve."
An adrendaline rush every page.
