The Midnight Lock is the 15th book in the Lincoln Rhyme series. Deaver is back with a great story. "A young woman wakes up to find that someone has picked the supposedly impregnable lock on her apartment door. Personal items are rearranged and it looks like he sat on her bed watching her. Sachs and Rhyme are brought in and learn that the perp calling himself "The Locksmith" can get through any door. They must follow the evidence to find his true mission and track him down before he escalates to more than just watching the sleeping victims." This is the Rhyme/Sachs story that we want from Deaver. There's a criminal with an unknown agenda that thinks they are keeping the crime scene pristine. But Rhyme can make a big deduction from the smallest piece of evidence. One difference in this book is that Deaver does not give the reader a big whiteboard of all the evidence every few chapters. It is listed a couple of times but shown differently than previous books. (This is an ARC so the finished book may be different) There are a couple of storylines running throughout. Deaver does a great job bringing them together at the end with some explosive twists. You'll never look at a food truck the same way again. I like that Deaver seems to have found the balance between introducing a topic and overexplaining. There is a lot of information about locks and lockpicking here but it seems more incorporated in the story than just the data dump from some previous books. This is a fast-paced, wildly entertaining book from Deaver. He keeps you guessing to the very end. Fans of Rhyme/Sachs will enjoy this book. And fans of police procedural/crime fiction thrillers will definitely enjoy this one. This can be read as a standalone. Thanks to @putnambooks and @netgalley for the advanced. #themidnightlock #jefferydeaver #lincolnrhyme #policeprocedural #nycfiction #netgalley #gpputnamssonsbooks #penguinbooks #bookstagram #bookshelves #booknerd #bookhoarder #bookworm #sodacityreads #bookish #bookreview #hardcover #bookcover #bookhaul #literarycrimefiction #goodreads #homelibrary #fiction #domesticthriller #crimefiction #thriller #kindlebooks (at Irmo, South Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWlExy6LIHC/?utm_medium=tumblr
