Pros: Logical plot and intense action Cons: None
I keep forgetting about Jeffrey Deaver and his ongoing character Lincoln Rhymes. It is to my detriment that I do so. But I picked up a paperback recently of The Stone Monkey. It was a good read, for me anyway, one who likes science and logical ...

Pros: The best Lincoln Rhyme novel to date Cons: Not being able to put the book down!
Jeffrey Deaver is another of my all time favorite authors. Once more, he has written another page turner, as good as, if not better then The Bone Collector, Coffin Dancer or Empty Chair.
Once again, the famed criminologist and quadriplegic...

Pros: One of the best Lincoln Rhyme novels. The book kept me guessing. Cons: Did not fully explain the actions of some of the characters from previous books.
The newest Lincoln Rhyme novel lives up to the standard the other books in the series have set. Research was superb and really brought home the plight of Chinese immigrants. The plot was well structured, although there were times when a little too much...
