Another Lincoln Rhyme book! Lincoln and his protegee are called in to work the investigation of a killer that has seemed to vanish into thin air. A very intricate plot that keeps you guessing.
Another great Lincoln Rhyme novel!
Jeffery Deaver delivers well-written, well-structured suspenseful stories, and this one is no exception. Deavers has put together a story, set in the world of magic, filled with twists and turns and surprises!
Rhyme and Sachs fans will not be disappointed in The Vanished Man. Once again, the dynamic duo puts together forensic evidence that leads to the arrest of the "bad guy" in spite of smoke and mirrors, disappearing characters, interwoven story lines... A good read, and one recommended for any mystery/suspense junkie!
Lincoln Rhymes matches wits with a killer dubbed "The Conjuror" for his use of traditional magician's techniques in committing and escaping from his crimes. Like all the series entries, this one is marked by more plot wriggles than a bucket of night crawlers.

This is the first book I've read by Jeffery Deaver. Even though its part of a series it can and does stand alone.
A gent at Costco recommended this series, said it was a modern Sherlock Holmes. While I felt this particular story fell short of Sherlock it did pack a punch and was a fun read.

Majic turned to murder .. fun and fast to read.
Excellent book. The author keeps you "hooked" with his Lincoln Rhyme character and the "magic" killer.
