The Midnight Lock

Lincoln Rhyme, Book 15

De: Jeffery Deaver

Narrado por: Edoardo Ballerini

The "master of ticking-bomb suspense" (People) Jeffery Deaver delivers the latest thriller featuring his beloved protagonists Lincoln Rhyme and Amelia Sachs as they search for a criminal whose fascination with breaking locks terrorizes New York City.

A woman awakes in the morning to find that someone has picked her apartment’s supposedly impregnable door lock and rearranged personal items, even sitting beside her while she slept. The intrusion, the police learn, is a message to the entire city of carnage to come. Lincoln Rhyme and Amelia Sachs are brought in to investigate and soon learn that the sociopathic intruder, who calls himself "the Locksmith”, can break through any lock or security system ever devised. With more victims on the horizon, Rhyme, Sachs and their stable of associates must follow the evidence to the man’s lair...and discover his true mission.

Their hunt is interrupted when an internal investigation in the police force uncovers what seems to be a crucial mistake in one of Rhyme's previous cases. He’s fired as a consultant for the NYPD and must risk jail if he investigates the Locksmith case in secret.

The Midnight Lock is a roller-coaster listen that takes place over just a few days’ time, features surprise after surprise and offers a fascinating look at the esoteric world of lockpicking.

Good story with many twists

I enjoyed the many twists and the appearances of all the Rhyme crew. All of the stories wove together in a seemingly unbelievable fashion.

Fast paced and good narration

Once again great narrator.

Story is entertaining with some good twists and appropriate pace.

Characaters can be somewhat one dimensional but they are still likeable.

GREAT

Great Great Really Great Loved It Reread again Terrific and ending got my attention

Fantastic Deaver Novel

I have only read a few of his novels but need to read them all!

Keyed Up.

Loved the twists.
Narrator is the best. loved the whole story,
looking for the next now

Solid experience

I love the narrator of this series and this edition doesn’t disappoint. The ending got a bit convoluted, like the author tried to cram too much into one chapter. Overall worth the credit!

Twists and Unexpected Turns

I really like Lyle Spencer, the newest character to come on the team. I look forward to seeing more of him in future books.

Always enjoy Jeffery Deaver

Great story. It was sometimes difficult to keep the characters straight though. Also the narrator has some difficulty with assigning different tones for the characters., they tend to sound the same and this also causes confusion in keeping the characters identified correctly.

Well worth waiting for

I have listened to a few other books by Jeffrey Deaver. Still enjoy Lincoln Rhyme the most

another great tour de force-- love this series

Love the series, and this one was uniquely complex and a nuclear complex and unexpected. Can't wait for the next One
