DON'T MISS THE NBC TELEVISION SERIES LINCOLN RHYME: HUNT FOR THE BONE COLLECTOR

The first novel in the New York Times bestselling series featuring forensic detective Lincoln Rhyme—from the author of The Never Game.

A diabolical killer challenges Rhyme to a terrifying and ingenious duel of wits. With police detective Amelia Sachs at his side, Rhyme follows a labyrinth of clues reaching back to a dark chapter in New York City’s past and delves into the darkness of a madman's mind, a killer who won’t stop until life is stripped down to the bone.
