ABOUT THE BOOK

The Coffin Dancer is a high-stakes, masterfully plotted thriller and the second installment in the world-renowned Lincoln Rhyme series. The story pits the quadriplegic forensic genius Lincoln Rhyme and his protégée, Amelia Sachs, against a ruthless, shape-shifting professional assassin known only as the "Coffin Dancer." As the killer systematically eliminates witnesses before a grand jury trial, Rhyme must engage in a deadly game of intellectual chess, using trace evidence and forensic logic to predict the assassin's next move. The novel is celebrated for its breathless pace, intricate technical details of criminal investigation, and the signature "triple-twist" endings that have become Deaver’s trademark.
