There’s going to be a lot of publicity behind The Bone Collector , including a tie-in with an HBO movie based on another Deaver novel, A Maiden’s Grave , due to air in January, so it will no doubt move. A quadriplegic criminalist hunts the most elusive quarry of his career: a serial killer who leaves clues at each crime scene allowing the cops to head off the next murder–if they can decode them in time. With nothing left to live for since an accident ended his forensic career and his marriage, bearish Lincoln Rhyme has made an appointment with Dr.

William Berger, of the suicide-friendly Lethe Society. Lon Sellitto, just happens to breeze in, uninvited and unwelcome, minutes before Berger does, and talks Rhyme out of suicide and into spearheading the hunt for Unsub , the demonic cabbie whose fares often face nightmarish scenarios of torture and death.

Though he shows no mercy to his victims, Unsub obligingly salts each crime scene with cryptic clues to his next, clues that whet Rhyme’s jaundiced appetite and give him the hope of saving currency trader T. It’s not long before Rhyme’s blood is pumping again, and he’s persuaded beautiful Amelia Sachs, the Major Crimes officer who preserved the first crime scene long enough to gather a few precious scraps of evidence, to put off her medical transfer to Public Affairs and become his eyes, ears, and nose at each gory scene.

A main character to love!! Verified Purchase. I’ve started and bailed on a dozen different series because I can’t stand the main character. Rhyme and Sachs?! Absolutely LOVE them! They’re different, well-written, they draw you in and get you to care about them. Are the novel perfect? But they’re a blast, and MAN can Deaver write a twist!

New fan here. Off to look for the movie I keep seeing mentioned in the other reviews :. I read this book before I saw the movie in the theater. I always remember thinking that the book was much better than the movie. There are really two separate unique climaxes in this book.

The first will take your breath away and the second will make you question the true value of love. The book is worth reading for just the first climax. The second is icing on the cake. After this one,read the other books about this character. They become more and more interesting. I watched the movie and was hooked. Now I ordered all of the Lincoln Rhyme books. Any cop mystery lover will love them. The writer Jeffery Deaver will have you on the edge of your seat till the very end.

One person found this helpful. The first two-thirds of this book seemed to be filled with so much police procedural and technical jargon. It was slow going.

Author is renowned for excellent writing and this book is no exception. It’s a good escape. I enjoyed watching smart, talented people. I liked the relationship development. He is an expert with collecting and analyzing evidence. He can tell where someone has been by the dirt on their clothes. He was in charge of forensic investigations until he was injured by a falling roof beam, hitting his neck. Now a quadriplegic, he can only move his neck, head, and one finger. He has not worked for a few years.

A serial killer, obsessed with bones, kidnaps two people, buries one of them near a railroad track with a hand sticking out of the dirt, and then calls in the location to the cops. Amelia is a nearby patrol cop assigned to search the area. She climbs down a dirt hill rather than use the installed ladder. She stops a coming train. She stops traffic. All this to preserve the crime scene. Lon is a detective who used to work with Lincoln.

Although Lincoln is retired, Lon asks for Lincoln’s help. Lincoln is reluctant until he sees the report showing clues left by the killer: a pile of asbestos, an iron bolt, and two pieces of paper with and printed on them.

From these Lincoln realizes where the next victim may be. He calls Lon and agrees to work on the case, but he wants Amelia working with him. He wants her in charge of collecting evidence at the crime scenes. He likes her instincts about preserving the crime scene.

The killer continues to grab victims, set them up for death, and leave clues. I enjoyed and was impressed with Lincoln’s amazing evidence analysis, deduction, and intuition. I enjoyed the developing relationship with Amelia. I liked her abilities, smarts, and her story as well.

The ending is a feel good ending. For a while I had some disbelief about a serial killer purposely leaving clues for the police. Each set of clues was about how and when he would kill the next victim. This seemed a bit contrived.

It felt like a scavenger hunt. But by the end of the book, it made sense. So try not to question the believability, just go with. I doubt this kind of thing would happen in real life, but it’s an entertaining story. No stupidity. There are some gruesome scenes which might bother some, for example, rats eating someone alive who is tied up and cut open. This was made into a movie.

I think I saw it, but I forget how I felt about it. DATA: Story length: pages. Swearing language: strong, including religious swear words. Sexual content: none. Copyright: Genre: crime suspense thriller. Ending: feel good and smiling. They are immortal now.

I freed them. I took them down to the bone. I read this book for the first time when it first came out back in I loved it from the beginning and read the entire Lincoln Rhyme series after that.

And as I remember this movie followed the book pretty closely. It seemed like there are a bunch of discrepancies from the book and I re-read it just to refresh my memory. The TV show is okay but it barely follows the book and, in comparison, definitely makes the movie shine. Lincoln Rhyme was a criminalist with the New York Police Department until he was injured on the job and became a quadriplegic. He’s having a difficult time finding the desire to live when abruptly he is called upon to consult on an unusual case.

He brings in Officer Amelia Sachs to be “his feet” at the crime scenes. I loved the storyline. I loved the characters especially Lincoln, Amelia, and his health aide Thom. If you haven’t read this book and this series, you are genuinely missing out on one of the best police procedurals out there.

The Bone Collector is a murder thriller and its lead detective,Lincoln Rhyme is a quadriplegic contemplating euthanasia. The female lead is Amelia Sachs a patrol officer on her way to an officers promotion. Her last beat is when all the excitement happens.

All the science and tech aside, this book stands out for its great camaraderie. The cosy make shift investigation room along with the eye for detail that Lincoln Rhyme displays is amazing. For Amelia Sachs, it was literally her baptism through fire. The twist towards the end was unexpected and yes, the explanation too as to why Lincoln’s the chosen one too is touching.

Having said all this, the end was a little cringy?? See all reviews. Top reviews from other countries. He is seriously wondering whether his life is now worth living. A killer stalks the streets of New York City.

The authorities turn to Rhyme but is he in a fit state to cope with demands of a serial killer investigation. In addition to the search for the killer there are several sub-plots continuing throughout the story.

The on-going United Nations conference that New York is currently hosting. Deaver writes well in my view and in addition to his description of the physical limitations a quadriplegic such as Rhyme experiences he also shows a good insight into the emotional and mental health aspects of such a condition. Deaver does not spare his readers the realities of such an existence. Well worth a look. Lincoln Rhyme book one.

 
 

 

The Bone Collector by Jeffery Deaver – Ebook | Scribd – Create a new bookshelf

 

Deaver A Maiden’s Grave is too fond of gimmicks. They range in this novel from the extreme his detective here, Lincoln Rhyme, is a quadriplegic who can move only one finger to the moderately eccentric beautiful policewoman Amelia Sachs, who acts as Rhyme’s arms and legs, suffers from arthritis. And his villain, a serial killer who models his crimes on ones he finds in a book on criminal life in old New York, has an uncomfortable way of slaying each of his victims in ways guaranteed to stop the heart or turn the stomach: buried alive, flayed by high-pressure steam, eaten by hungry rats, burned alive, attacked by mad dogs.

All this takes place in the course of one busy New York weekend as the killer helpfully leaves playful little clues as to where he’s going to strike next and Rhyme uses his immense savvy and a battery of computerized testing tools to figure it out. The whole affair, in fact, is incredibly silly, though the headlong narrative, with Sachs arriving in the nick of time driving at 80 mph through New York streets to perform rescues that seem to belong in a comic strip rather than a novel, never lets up, and there is plenty of genuine forensic knowledge in evidence.
