The Bone Collector

The first novel in the New York Times best-selling series featuring forensic detective Lincoln Rhyme – from the author of The Never Game. Lincoln Rhyme was once a brilliant criminologist, a genius in the field of forensics – until an accident left him physically and emotionally shattered. But now a diabolical killer is challenging Rhyme to a terrifying and ingenious duel of wits. With police detective Amelia Sachs by his side, Rhyme must follow a labyrinth of clues that reaches back to a dark chapter in New York City’s past – and reach further into the darkness of the mind of a madman who won’t stop until he has stripped life down to the bone. Includes the short story “A Perfect Plan” and a chapter from The Midnight Lock. ©2014 Jeffery Deaver (P)2014 Penguin Audio
