Robert Moreno, an American citizen living in South America, is shot in the Bahamas by a sniper. The killing was commissioned by the U.S. government, who received a tip-off that Moreno was planning a terrorist attack on a U.S. oil company headquarters. But this intelligence was fatally incorrect: anti-American Moreno ordered a protest at the oil company, not an attack.
Lincoln Rhyme and Amelia Sachs are drafted in to investigate. While Sachs traces Moreno’s steps in New York, Rhyme travels to the scene of the crime in Nassau, where he finds himself on a dangerous path trailed by the sniper himself. As details of the case start to emerge, the pair discover that not all is what it seemed. Can they achieve justice and escape with their lives intact?
The Kill Room is available now in the USA, Canada, the UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand.

This Lincoln Rhyme thriller is as good as you might expect from the author as the plot throws up unexpected twists and turns at every juncture, especially in the last quarter. Engaging and well-written, it tells of an assassination in the Bahamas of a leading anti-American political figure and its c...
Jeffrey Deaver puts us smack in the middle of international intrigue this time, with the murder of an American political dissident in the Bahamas. Lincoln Rhyme and his team are brought in because the victim is from New York.As usual, the police procedural details here are fabulous ... as are the c...
Fishing is a strange sport. You sit around getting drunk for hours on end and hopefully catch some food. But red herrings are highly overrated, especially when they inspire novelists.Lincoln Rhyme and Amelia Sachs are back with another mystery to solve. This time a sniper has killed Robert Morano, a...
A quick review for this one - as part of the Lincoln Rhyme series it was just as well written but I did not, in this case, find the case or the subject matter that interesting. Hence a lower star rating than I would normally give Mr Deaver for this series which overall is one of my favourites. I am ...
