About the Books This collection opens with The Bone Collector , introducing Lincoln Rhyme, a former head of NYPD forensics left quadriplegic after an accident, drawn back into fieldwork to catch a killer who leaves cryptic clues for police to decode. The Coffin Dancer pits Rhyme and Sachs against a professional assassin hired to eliminate witnesses before a high-profile trial. In The Empty Chair , Rhyme travels to North Carolina for experimental surgery and is pulled into a manhunt for a teenager accused of kidnapping and murder. The Stone Monkey sees the pair pursue a ruthless human smuggler after a migrant ship runs aground off Long Island. The Vanished Man introduces an illusionist-turned-killer whose skills of misdirection test Rhyme's deductive methods. The Twelfth Card centres on a teenage girl targeted after researching her family history, unearthing dangerous secrets rooted in the past. Finally, The Cold Moon introduces a killer who leaves ticking clocks beside his victims, counting down to their deaths.
