Résumé

Présentation de l'éditeur A killer flees the scene of a homicide at a prestigious Manhattan music school and locks himself in a classroom. Within minutes, the police have him surrounded. Then a scream rings out, followed by a gunshot. The police break down the door. The room is empty. Lincoln Rhyme and Amelia Sachs are brought in to help with the high-profile investigation. For the ambitious Sachs, solving the case could earn her a promotion. For the quadriplegic Rhyme, it means relying on his protégée to ferret out a master illusionist they've dubbed 'the conjurer', who baits them with gruesome murders that become more diabolical with each fresh crime. As the fatalities rise and the minutes tick down, Rhyme and Sachs must move beyond the smoke and mirrors to prevent a terrifying act of vengeance that could become the greatest vanishing act of all. Revue de presse 'The best psychological thriller writer around' - The Times 'The story twists and turns at a cracking pace to reach its craftily plotted conclusion. Another winner from this first-class writer. Highly recommended.' - Hull Daily Mail 'Teeth-chattering suspense' - Daily Mail 'Stunning' Scotsman 'This is Deaver as his followers expect him to be, crackling and compulsive' Publishing News Biographie de l'auteur Jeff Deaver was a lawyer before quitting work to become a full-time writer. He divides his time between Washington, DC and California.
