The New York Times bestselling author of The Stone Monkey is back with a brilliant thriller that pits forensic criminologist Lincoln Rhyme and his partner, Amelia Sachs, against an unstoppable killer with one final, horrific trick up his sleeve.
The Los Angeles Times calls his novels "thrill rides between covers." The New York Times hails them as "dazzling," and The Times of London crowns him "the best psychological thriller writer around." Now Jeffery Deaver, America's "master of ticking-bomb suspense" (People) delivers his most electrifying novel yet.
It begins at a prestigious music school in New York City. A killer flees the scene of a homicide and locks himself in a classroom. Within minutes, the police have him surrounded. When a scream rings out, followed by a gunshot, they break down the door. The room is empty.
Lincoln Rhyme and Amelia Sachs are brought in to help with the high-profile investigation. For the ambitious Sachs, solving the case could earn her a promotion. For the quadriplegic Rhyme, it means relying on his protégée to ferret out a master illusionist they've dubbed "the conjurer," who baits them with gruesome murders that become more diabolical with each fresh crime. As the fatalities rise and the minutes tick down, Rhyme and Sachs must move beyond the smoke and mirrors to prevent a terrifying act of vengeance that could become the greatest vanishing act of all.
Jeffery Deaver is the New York Times bestselling author of eighteen novels of suspense, including The Bone Collector, which was made into a feature film. A two-time recipient of the Ellery Queen Reader's Award for Best Short Story of the Year, he has been nominated for four Edgar Awards from the Mystery Writers of America and an Anthony Award. Mr. Deaver lives in California and Virginia.

评分Several years ago, I bumped into a movie, The Bone Collector. I have forgotten all about its plots ever since, and the only thing gluing to my head was Washington's sad and stupid face. No offence, I just don't like the actor. Until a few days ago, someone ...
评分这本可以说是我看过的迪弗中诡计最花哨的一本了。本书讲述的故事非常精彩,于是我第一次一气呵成的读完了一本迪弗的作品。不过本书中还是有令人失望的地方,我总结了两个亮点与两个失误! 本书最大的亮点当然是魔术了。由于这次的罪犯是一名“魔术师”,所以本书简直是一本魔...
