Book Reviews of The Vanished Man (Lincoln Rhyme, Bk 5)

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.

Good Read

This was my first Jeffery Deaver book and I was very impressed. Very good book. I'll definitely read lots more!

The twists and turns in this book were unbelievable.

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.

Book was very intriguing

Forensic expert Lincoln Rhyme and his protégé Amelia Sachs are called in to work the high-profile investigation of a killer who seemingly disappeared into thin air just as the police closed in. As the homicidal illusionist baits them with grisly murders that grow more diabolical with each victim, Rhyme and Sachs must go behind the smoke and mirrors to prevent a horrific act of vengeance that could become the greatest vanishing act of all...

It took me a while to get through it but worth sticking with.

good

Excellent read.

Mystery about a killer who seemingly disappeared into thin air just as police closed in.

Love Lincoln Rhyme

This was a great book. It definitely followed the Deaver formula but the magic and illusion references were very interesting. Deaver is a master. This was about an illusionist who was killing people. The murders were actually a diversion. The identification of the murderer was also a diversion. Kara, a local magician, was used to help give some great information on illusion. Deaver does an excellent job with the suspense and also intermingling the character development of the series. There were twists right up until the very end. This by far was one of his best

Forensic exper Lincolyn Rhyme and his protege are called to work a highprofile investigation of a killer who disappeared into thin air.

Another great Jeffery Deaver book with Lincoln Rhymes and Amelia Sachs as characters. It has an interesting 'magic' twist.

A Lincoln Rhyme novel.

Forensic expert Lincoln Rhyme and his protegee Amelia Sachs are called in to work the high-profile investigation of a killer who seemingly disappeared into thin air just as the police closed in. As the homicidal illusionist baits them grisly murders that grow more diabolical with each victim, Rhyme and Sachs must go behind the smoke and mirrors to prevent a horrific act of vengeance that could become the greatest vanishing act of all...

Prime Deaver indeed. A wonderful addition the Lincoln Rhyme series. All Deaver's work is great!

A great thriller. characters are interesting

Classic Lincoln Rhyme thriller. The plot twists, turns, twists again and then ... It's excellent.

Deaver always has a twist.

Rhyme and his protegee Amelia Sachs are called in to work the high-profile investigation of a killer who seemingly disappeared into thin air just as the police closed in. As the homicidal illusionist baits them with grisly murders that grow more diabolical with each victim, Rhyme and Sachs must go behnd the smoke and mirrors to prevent a horrific act of vengeance that could become the greatest vanishin act of all.

I love the Lincoln Rhyme series! Makes me want to get into the CSI type field investigation business. How cool!!

Ingriguing but almost endless escape (no pun intended) into the life of a homicidal illunionist, which requires the expertise of forensic expert paraplegic Lincoln Rhyme and his protegee Amelia Sachs. Good but geewhiz, the man keeps on disappearing... for me it got a little boring reading through yet another disappearance but kept me intrigued as to how exatly they were going to figure out how to pin down the man expecially with a paraplegic hunting him.

Definitely a page turner. I always enjoy Deaver, but I do have to say, this went on a little too long. There were so many twists, you didn't have a chance of figuring it out. I like to at least have a "chance". Enjoy!

Who doesn't like Lincoln Rhyme?

This is another great Lincoln Ryme book.

Not one of my favorite Lincoln Rhyme books.

great read as usual from great author

Another Lincoln Rhyme novel. He and his protegee Amelia Sachs are called into work the high-profile investigation of a killer who seemingly disappeared into thin air just as the police closed in. Another book by Jeff Deaver who also wrote "The Bone Collector" which was made into a TV movie starring Denzel Washington.

a Lincoln Rhyme mystery

Quadraplegic forensic detective Lincoln Rhyme and his partner Amelia Sachs are back to solve another case or two, or three. As each page turned the plot got more and more intricate. I really enjoy Jeffry Deaver's books.

Lincoln Rhyme novel. Good read although I felt there were a few too many twists and turns.
