The Bone Collector: The thrilling first novel in the bestselling Lincoln Rhyme mystery series (Lincoln Rhyme Thrillers)

New York City is thrown into chaos by the assaults of the Bone Collector, a serial kidnapper and killer who gives the police a chance to save his victims from death by leaving obscure clues. The cops go to Lincoln Rhyme, an ex-NYPD forensics expert left paralysed after an accident on the job. Rhyme reluctantly postpones his ambitions towards suicide and puts together a forensic investigation team, enlisting as his eyes and ears young police officer Amelia Sachs. Rhyme digs deep into the only world he has left - his astonishing mind - and slowly begins to narrow the noose around the Bone Collector. But the kidnapper is narrowing his own noose - around Lincoln Rhyme. Number one bestselling author Jeffery Deaver returns with his most famous characters Lincoln Rhyme and Amelia Sachs in beautifully reissued editions. The first Lincoln Rhyme thriller - on which the hugely successful movie was based.
