Loading... The Cold Moon (2006)by Jeffery Deaver
None. An easy read, but not the most stimulating and the writing felt a bit lazy and cliched in places................... ( )dull, only read 1/2 This is his most twisted Lincoln Rhyme book to date! I loved it! Couple of mistakes in plot logic near the end, but it was an enjoyable read. "Cold Moon" by Jeffery Deaver was a good mystery with 'the watchmaker' emerging as a the villain in this story, another in the Lincoln Rhyme series by Jeffery Deaver. Combining Rhyme’s talents with those of his partner Amelia Sacs, and Kathryn Dance, who is an expert in the field of kinesics and is a visiting expert from the Monterey Peninsula at the California Bureau of Investigation. Trying to solve the clues in the ongoing murders, where the Watchmaker’s murders leaves a moon faced clock ticking at each crime scene. The team finds a trail of confused clues that seem to leave to the conclusion that there might be an attempt to steal a precious timepiece and the victims are just collateral damage. However, the leads all seem to go to the wrong places and the story keeps turning up bodies and possible complications, such as police involvement in all the wrong ways. This is another enjoyable read for fans of police and detective mysteries. no reviews | add a review
