Three witnesses to an military deal cover up could put a millionaire arms dealer behind bars for good. When one of them, the co-owner of Hudson Air, is blown up in a plane bombing with the Dancer's fingerprints all over it, the FBI takes the other witnesses into protective custody. Only Rhyme can decipher a crime scene, read the residue of a bombing, or identify a handful of dirt well enough to keep up with the killer before the 48 hour deadline arrives. Helped by Amelia Sachs, his brilliant and able-bodied assistant, Rhyme traces the Dancer through Manhattan streets, airports, and subways. The psychological tension builds rapidly from page one all the way to the stunning and unexpected end.
Jeffery Deaver is a master of suspense writing. There were so many twist and turns throughout this novel that it could easily become confusing and lose it’s impact, but he has it nailed down to a fine art and I was absorbed in the story from beginning to end.
The characters are rich and intense and 100% believable, and at times I felt that I was working alongside Rhyme and Amelia feeling their frustration, pain and excitement.
A book I would definitely recommend, even if you are not a fan of murder/mystery, this one is sure to hook you until the end.
