No one weaves a captivating, nail-biting tale like Deaver. I missed an entire night's sleep because I couldn't put this down (and was too nervous to sleep if I had). This is a must read!

A Lincoln Rhymes novel. Linc faces his toughest criminal yet "the bug boy" . Catching this criminal is one thing but keeping him is another story.

All I can say is I have read all of Deavers books and this one kept me turning pages and wishing that the book would never end.

Wow - very good book that keeps you guessing! Does he have the operation or doesn't he? Does she go to jail or doesn't she? Hmm. Way to go, Mr. Deaver!

I love the Lincoln Rhyme series!! You never know what to expect and when you think you know you more than likely don't!! I highly recommend the series starting with the first (this is the third).

Another great Lincoln Rhyme mystery. Give that man a little dirt off the bottom of your shoe and he'll tell you not only what you had for breakfast, but what city your momma was born in!!

Classic Deaver. A good read.

Marcus N. (Handlebars) reviewed on 2/1/2007...


It's not easy being NYPD detective Lincoln Rhyme, the world's foremost criminalist. First of all, he's a quadriplegic. Secondly, he's forever being second-guessed and mother-henned by his ex-model-turned-cop protégé, Amelia Sachs, and his personal aide, Thom. And thirdly, it seems that he can't motor his wheelchair around a corner without bumping into one crazed psycho-killer after another.

This book had more twists and turns than any book I have ever read. It was hard to put it down.

PAUL C. (pabloguitarist) reviewed on 6/15/2006...


This is another excellent book in the Lincoln Rhyme series. This time he and his assistant, Amelia Sachs, are out of their element in North Carolina, near the Great Dismal Swamp. This is very unlike their native habitat of New York City and environs.
