The Cold Moon by Jeffery Deaver
It's the night of the full Cold Moon - the month of December according to the lunar calendar. A young man is found dead in lower Manhattan, the first in a series of victims of a ruthless killer calling himself the Watchmaker. His obsession with time drives the Watchmaker to plan the murders with the precision of fine timepieces, and the victims die prolonged deaths while an eerie clock ticks away their last minutes on earth. Amelia is not only Lincoln's eyes and ears at crime scenes on the Watchmaker case, but she's now running her own homicide investigation - her first case as lead detective. The policewoman's unwavering efforts in pursuing the killers of a businessman, who left behind a wife and son, sets into motion clockwork gears of its own, with consequences reaching to people and events that will endanger not only many lives but Lincoln's and Amelia's future together.
"* 'This is a novel that will chill your blood on the warmest day of any summer holidayKeep looking over your shoulder...' - Independent on Sunday * 'THE COLD MOON has a superscription from William Faulkner, but this is not a book in the 'literary' thriller genre. Deaver is not so much interested in tickling our aesthetic sensibilities as in raising our pulse rates, and he's doing that from the first chapter' - Barry Forshaw, Daily Express * 'Bestseller Deaver is on top form here, producing a real spine-tingler with a fabulous twist at the end' - She * 'Jeffery Deaver is a master at crafting intricate crimes that are solved through guile, tenacity and sheer creative genius. And Lincoln Rhyme is one of a kind.' - Harlan Coben"
