This book is based on a character introduced in the last Lincoln Rhyme book. I really liked Catherine Dance and hope he writes more books about her. She is not only smart, good at her job, but also likable. Everytime I thought I had this book figured out it changed courses on me. It will keep you interested throughout and in some places you just won't be able to put it down.

I got hooked on Deaver since "A Maiden's Grave." He is, in my opinion, an exceptional author, especially for his prowess with "plot twists." Such a gift for a modern author is refreshing. This time he focusses not on Lincoln Rhyme, but on Kathryn Dance, who is just as gifted in uncovering truth through observation as Deaver. JB

I have read many of Jeffery Deaver's books, and always enjoy them. I was not disappointed - in fact the Sleeping Doll is one of his best!

Special Agent Kathry Dancer is sent to question convicted murder Daniel Pell. Something goes terribly wrong and suddenly the man known as Son of Manson is loose and on a killing spree in beautiful Monterey County. Katherine and her collegues must do every thing they can to find the killer and his accomplise while he uses his twisted, brillant mind to extract revenge. The book reads easily, the story is fascinating and there is a shocking surprise or two at the end. Worth the read. The only caveat I found is that the author is British and refers to San Quentin Prison as The Q when we natives all know that the correct reference is simply Q.

This is a VERY LONG thriller. It moves quickly, has tons of twists and turns but at almost 600 pages, it takes a while! I will be looking for the next in the series as the characters are well written and the thrills are unexpected.

Talk about boring!!!!!

I don't believe the category of 'kinesics', oh I'm sure it exists but I don't go along with it, this book is 500+ pages and all it is about is chasing a serial killer that escaped and then it just gets repetitive page after page after page, I mean they can't catch him in less than 500+ ages? Give me a break!

Deaver hit a home run with this book, well written, kept the reader wondering what was going to happen next. It has been awhile since I read a good mystery book, most are written like there is a deadline to meet. You will love reading this book

Great read! I haven't found anything I don't like with Jeffrey Deaver's books. This is part of a series that is good to follow all the way.

This was a great read. Good characters and a few twists that I did not see coming. This was the first Kathryn Dance novel I have read and I am hooked. I believe Jeffrey Deaver is now in my list of favorite authors.
