The Coffin Dancer by Jeffrey Deaver.

I’m considering titling my reviews Devious Deaver.  The man is a master at mis-direction.  Just when I think I have the plot figured out, he does a u-turn.   I love it!

Lincoln Rhyme is a shadow of his past self but his mind is still tack smart.   A contract killer is eliminating witnesses.  Lincoln and his side kick Amelia are trying to stop him.

Deaver does a very good job on constructing his characters.   They are often likeable and terrifying.  He doesn’t hesitate to throw one of them under the bus if it promotes the plot.

I really enjoyed the book and recommend it.  

This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
