Summary
The 'master of ticking-bomb suspense' Jeffery Deaver brings us the latest thriller featuring his most beloved protagonists. Lincoln Rhyme and Amelia Sachs are back—on the hunt for a criminal terrorising New York City.
A killer without limits.
He comes into your home at night. He watches you as you sleep. He waits.
A city in turmoil.
He calls himself ‘The Locksmith’. No door can keep him out. No security system can catch him. And now he’s about to kill.
A race against time to stop him.
Nobody in New York is safe. Now it’s up to Lincoln Rhyme to untangle the web of evidence and catch him.
But with Lincoln under investigation himself, and tension in the city at boiling point, time is running out....
Critic reviews
"Gripping and ingenious tale of greed and deception in the American wilderness." (The Times, Thriller of the Month)
"[An] outstanding sequel to 2019’s The Never Game...Deaver balances suspense and plausibility perfectly.... This is a perfect jumping-on point for readers new to one of today’s top contemporary thrillers writers." (Publishers Weekly)

Typically great J Deaver
Would love to give 5 for story line too, but the finale is a bit too perfect, every ‘baddy’ tied up with pink ribbon and the second last one, the ‘Mole’ in the nest …. Well, to be honest, it truly defies all laws of coincidental reckoning. Prefer it a little less ‘slick’ and more believable.
Realise, of course, that’s a personal preference. Anyhow, well worth 14/15! Truly enjoyed the book!

Difficult to follow
Usually love Deaver but found this jumped all over the place and was too complicated. Still worth a listen though.

Exciting read
Once again Deaver delights with this twist and turn story. Always keeps me on the edge of my seat right to the end. Performances we’re good and pitched just right.

twists and turns
it took me a while to get used to the new narrator. I would have given it a 5 star but I found his speech very fast. I have to say I did get used to it and he did a good job. As usual the twists and turns are amazing. You've got to keep up with it, so try not to leave too many gaps otherwise you'll get confused...

Very good
This is my 3rd Jeffrey Deaver book and I enjoyed it as much as the others. The narrator is good but I would have preferred that his tones and voices for the various characters were more distinctive from each other. I sometimes had to figure out who it was that was speaking and it got confusing at times.
