The Kill Room
The Kill Room | Jeffery Deaver
14 posts | 17 read | 12 to read
It was a "million-dollar bullet," a sniper shot delivered from over a mile away. Its victim was no ordinary mark: he was a United States citizen, targeted by the United States government, and assassinated in the Bahamas. The nation's most renowned investigator and forensics expert, Lincoln Rhyme, is drafted to investigate. While his partner, Amelia Sachs, traces the victim's steps in Manhattan, Rhyme leaves the city to pursue the sniper himself. As details of the case start to emerge, the pair discovers that not all is what it seems. When a deadly, knife-wielding assassin begins systematically eliminating all evidence--including the witnesses--Lincoln's investigation turns into a chilling battle of wits against a cold-blooded killer.

The Lincoln Rhyme/Amelia Sachs duo is a favorite. Always twists and turns. Always something from left field. Doesn‘t feel gimmicky though.

Lincoln Rhyme is always a treat. Perfect for night shift.

This one hasn‘t hooked me in yet. It isn‘t my usual type of read, so it‘s probably that. Has anyone read it?

🎧📚 This is my first Lincoln Rhyme book. I think I‘d read another! He‘s a paraplegic X-NYC cop.

He‘s thinking about having a dangerous surgery to restore motion to his upper extremities when the ADA taps him and his beautiful cop GF for help with a murder investigation.

The book‘s a bit busy but enjoyable & well written. It‘s political, a thriller, mystery, suspense & a bit of a police procedural crime novel. Good for what it was.

⭐️⭐️⭐️2/3

The fast pace and plot involving detectives trying to prove the U.S. government ordered an illegal assassination of a U.S. citizen was intriguing at first. But the killer fixates on comparing torturing and killing his victims to butchering and cooking meat. The first couple of times Deaver gave long descriptions of the murderer cooking a meal, contrasted with long descriptions of seeing his victims about the same, I was OK with it. ⬇️⬇️

LitStephanie But when it became clear that this was going to be a major theme of the novel, I bailed. Gross, and also kind of boring, to me. If that sort of thing doesn't bother you, though, it otherwise looks fun. 4y

A political kill...was it legal or traitorous? Lots of research to discover the truth & misadventures along the way.

Ive worked out that if you leave a couple of years between each lincoln rhyme story the read is more enjoyable. Definitely a decent plot but the formula doesn't change - still i do enjoy his storytelling so maybe a shorter gap next time
