It was easy picturizing these two fine actors while reading the book. I have read Jefferey Deaver’s short stories and they are all spellbounding. But in this novel, i thought the writing was not very tight.

Dialogues were not taking the story ahead and towards the end, i was skimming through. The overall plot and story was good. So i have mixed thoughts about this book. Deaver’s writing is very descriptive, with perhaps a little too much telling rather than showing at times, but that’s his style and I think it works well for these characters.

Rhyme is brilliant in all his grumpiness, as usual, and the dynamic between Amelia and Pam also added to the story.

There’s no romance at all, but I’d definitely recommend The Skin Collector to all mystery and thriller fans. The Skin Collector sounds like a very good book, especially since it has references back to The Bone Collector. That was the book that made me a Jeffery Deaver fan.

I would recommend all of his books, but one of my very favorites is Roadside Crosses. I particularly liked the punch line involving the final victims, which tied off a thread that had seemed a little random.

I felt the story kept my interest very well because, by the end, I had forgotten a detail that I meant to keep in mind because I was following events so closely. When that detail returned I liked the way it fitted in with what had gone before. The chapters are organised into sections which are headed up by days and times. The whole action of the story takes place over four days and there is so much happening in terms of the investigation that I did find it hard to find a good stopping point.

Some readers have complained about the realism of the novel. I have to admit that it does not sound particularly feasible. However, I thought that more generally the protocols and behaviour of the various officers was convincing and I did not find the rather less realistic elements distracted from my interest in the story.

I found it to be tightly plotted and consistently interesting. The characters are rather stereotypical and their burgeoning relationship a slight distraction from the real story, but I found it interesting following the threads of the case as they unravelled.

The structure of the story trying to keep one step ahead of the killer is not new but is well handled. If you like crime fiction that focuses on forensics and genius detectives then this would suit you.

This is the first in the Lincoln Rhyme series of crime novels. It has one of the most deadly killers who commits some truly horrendous murders throughout the book. Anyone reading this series would do well to take the books in strict order if at all possible. As is usually the case with me,I read them as I find them,and of course started late and have only just read this,the first one!.

Rhyme is virtually immobile from a terrible accident and is paralysed from the neck down. Before the accident he was a brilliant forensic criminalist but now he is strongly considering suicide. Then a case comes along of such fascination,that he becomes interested in spite of himself. It helps that a beautiful,but deeply flawed police officer called Amelia Sachs is part of the investigation of the murder of a man,buried up to his neck and with his finger literally scraped down to the bone.

The man’s companion has been abducted. This is just the start of a number of awful killings committed by the man they call The Bone Collector. Rhyme and Sacks work together,with Sacks doing the leg-work and Rhyme doing the brain-work. Eventually they evolve into a partnership that really works for both of them. This is a brilliant story and a real page-turner. Not however for the faint-hearted. I can’t believe I haven’t discovered this author before now. This book is great and I’m not surprised there’s a movie.

I’ve probably got to see that soon. The book is practically written to be made into a movie! I was hooked from the beginning and totally absorbed by the time things were coming together to solve the crime. I’m definitely continuing on with this series. Amelia Sacs is his girlfriend and works as his hands and eyes on the scenes of crimes. In this first book of the series, Rhyme is filled with his own sense of uselessness because of the limitations of his body and he wants to end it all for himself.

That is until he is asked to solve a very important crime where a man is found buried alive and clues are found about the next victim. As he is pulled into this investigation, it changes his whole attitude about his own death and he begins to use his mind in extraordinary ways. The technology that Rhyme is able to use is amazing and was an education for me. In this book the introduction to the characters that will continue to be developed in future Deavers novels will have you wanting to read more.

I am a strong Jeffrey Deavers fan and encourage all mystery and thriller readers to read a Deavers book today and this is the one of the best for starting the series since it is not only the first, but tremendously exciting. I was tempted to give up when I hit this piece of description of the female cop, Amelia Sachs, on page Her Julia Roberts lips grew taut.

Her incredible beauty is described ad nauseum in the novel–we’re told at one point she has “iridescent blue eyes. She’s partnered with Lincoln Rhymes, a quadriplegic who was a top criminologist in the New York Police Department before his accident, to be his eyes and ears, a situation that makes me think of Nero Wolfe and Archie Goodwin. He’s the brain, she’s the brawn. The forensic details were fascinatingly presented; because she has to be Rhymes eyes and she’s new to crime scene work, it allows scenes to be described and have Rhymes explain so that we learn forensics along with her.

As a New York City native and resident, I also loved the bits of city history and geography prominently featured in the mystery. Several aspects of this novel about a series of kidnappings seemed melodramatic, gruesome, and far fetched.

And the resolution features a ludicrous coincidence. But the chemistry between Rhymes and Sachs ultimately redeemed the book for me, and I might someday read more in the series. I watched this movie years ago and didn’t realize at the time that it was based on a character in a long-running book series. I finally got around to listening to the book and I enjoyed it quite a lot. Granted, a quadriplegic in Rhyme’s condition makes for an unusual protagonist, but the formula works well here in addition to providing a bit of education on what life is like for people who are in such a condition.

I look forward to the other books in this series. Really great concept, not that greatly executed. I’m sick of reading books about a nerdy guy and a sexy lady going and solving a mystery and then although it didn’t happen in this book , hooking up. Overall, this book was highly unoriginal.
