	5	Deaver, Jeffery Hell's Kitchen Pocket February 1, 200 0-671-04751-5 / 9780671047511 Paperback Near Fine Perennial bestselling author Jeffrey Deaver's alter ego, William Jefferies, knows a thing or two about Hollywood. So does John Pellam, the hero of his previous Shallow Graves and Bloody River Blues and the latest in the serie s, Hell's Kitchen. Pellam made a name for himself as a director before a st int in San Quentin took him off the fast track. Since his release he's been earning his keep as a location scout and not so incidentally shooting a do cumentary about New York's Hell's Kitchen, which he hopes will propel him b ack into the career that skidded south after he ran afoul of the law. Pellam has found the star of his new film, one Ettie Washington, who has lived in the neighborhood for decades and is the perfect voice to tell the story of an area that's losing its old-time seediness to urban gentrification. But then Ettie's tenement goes up in a blaze that kills a small boy and puts her right in the public eye--as a suspect. It's only the beginning of a series of fires, each one more deadly. The cops know Ettie couldn't have set the others, since she's been in jail, but they're convinced she knows who did. Pellam has his own reasons for getting Ettie off the hook and embarking on a search for the real pyromaniac. Jeffries saves the best one for the very end of this taut, well-paced, and highly atmospheric thriller. Price: 400.00 JPY

	7	Deaver, Jeffery More Twisted: Collected Stories, Vol. II Pocket 2007 1-4165-4128-4 / 9781416541288 Paperback Very Good Bestseller Deaver's second story collection (after 2003's Twisted) is best enjoyed in small doses, since, as the author states in his preface, each of the 16 suspense tales contains a "gut-wrenching twist," a formulaic final reversal that loses its punch with too much repetition. That said, readers will find a number of clever and concise thrillers. The standout, "Born Bad ," about a mother waiting in fear for her estranged daughter to kill her, d oes a superb job of matching up the clues at the beginning with the tale's resolution. Sherlockians will get a kick from a pastiche narrated in third person, "The Westphalian Ring," pitting Holmes against a crafty jewel thief . In an afterword to the tale "Afraid," Deaver (The Bone Collector) explain s how he works the concept of fear into his fiction. Price: 500.00 JPY

Dance is the lead cop handling the esc ape of psychopathic killer Daniel Pell, dubbed "Son of Manson" by the press for his "family" of young runaways and his most horrendous crime, the murd ers of computer engineer William Croyton, Croyton's wife and two of their t hree children. The only child left alive, nine-year-old Theresa, is known a s the Sleeping Doll. Pell, charismatic and diabolically intelligent, contin ually eludes capture, but Dance, a specialist in interrogation and kinesics (or body language), is never more than a few suspenseful minutes behind. D ance is nicely detailed, and procedural scenes where she uses somatic cues to ferret out liars are fascinating. The book sags in its long middle, but toward the end Deaver digs into his bottomless bag of unexpected twists and turns, keeping readers wide-eyed with surprise, and leaving them looking f orward to more of the perspicacious Dance.

	9	Deaver, Jeffery Speaking in Tongues Coronet Books August 5, 1999 0-340-64023-5 / 9780340640234 Paperback Very Good Before he launched his praised and popular series about quadriplegic crimin ologist Lincoln Rhyme (The Empty Chair, etc.), Deaver made his reputation w ith tricky, stylish thrillers such as Praying for Sleep and Manhattan Is My Beat. This slick novel is a throwback to those books and Deaver's first wh olly outside the Rhyme universe since A Maiden's Grave. The basic plot is s imple. An insane but intensely charismatic psychiatrist, Aaron Matthews, fo r reasons revealed only near book's end, kidnaps his patient, alienated Meg an McCall, the young adult daughter of former Virginia prosecutor Tate Coll ier, and imprisons her in an abandoned mental institution. Tate and his est ranged wife go looking for Megan and enlist the cops in their search. Much violence ensues. Deaver's characters are workable but not deep, though ther e's some psychological probing along the fault lines dividing Tate, his wif e and their daughter. The novel's primary appeal arises from its thrills, w hich are plentiful. Like James Patterson, Deaver writes dialogue-driven pro se, in short, strong sentences and paragraphs that demand little from the r eader while seizing attention to the max. Tate and his wife are forgettable heroes, but Deaver tells some of the story from feisty Megan's gripping PO V, as she fights back against her captorAone dandy villain who delights in conning others through disguise and misdirection, allowing for plenty of pl ot curves.

Many have tried, none have succeeded until now. Leave it to Dea ver, the most clever plotter on the planet, to do it by simply applying the same rules of suspense to onscreen action as to offscreen. Much of the act ion in this novel about the hunt for an outlaw hacker turned homicidal mani ac does takes place in the real world, but much else plays out in cyberspac e as a team of California homicide and computer crime cops chase the infamo us "wizard" hacker known as Phate. The odds run against the cops. With his skills, Phate can not only change identities at will (a knack known as "soc ial engineering" in hacking parlance) but can manipulate all computerized r ecords about himself. The cops have a wizard of their own, however: a forme r online companion of Phate's, a hacker doing time for having allegedly cra cked the Department of Defense's encryption program. He's Wyatt Gillette, c oveting Pop-Tarts (the hacker's meal of choice) and computers, but also the wife he lost when he went to prison and it's his tortured personality that gives this novel its heart as Wyatt is sprung from prison, but only for as long as it takes to track down Phate. The mad hacker, meanwhile, no longer able to discern between the virtual and the real, has adapted a notorious online role-playing game to the world of flesh and blood, with innocent hum ans as his prey. As he twists suspense and tension to gigahertz levels, Dea ver springs an astonishing number of surprises on the reader: Who is Phate' s accomplice? What are Wyatt's real motives?

	15	Deaver, Jeffery The Empty Chair Pocket April 1, 2001 0-671-02601-1 / 9780671026011 Paperback Near Fine It's not easy being NYPD detective Lincoln Rhyme, the world's foremost crim inalist. First of all, he's a quadriplegic. Secondly, he's forever being se cond-guessed and mother-henned by his ex-model-turned-cop protégé, Amelia S achs, and his personal aide, Thom. And thirdly, it seems that he can't moto r his wheelchair around a corner without bumping into one crazed psycho-kil ler after another. In The Empty Chair, Jeffery Deaver's third Rhyme outing--after 1997's The B one Collector and 1998's The Coffin Dancer--Rhyme travels to North Carolina to undergo an experimental surgical procedure and is, a jot too coincident ally, met at the door by a local sheriff, the cousin of an NYPD colleague, bearing one murder, two kidnappings, and a timely plea for help. It seems t hat 16-year-old Garrett Hanlon, a bug-obsessed orphan known locally as the Insect Boy, has kidnapped and probably raped two women, and bludgeoned to d eath a would-be hero who tried to stop one of the abductions. Rhyme sets up shop, Amelia leads the local constabulary (easily recognized by their out-of-joint noses) into the field, and, after some Holmesian brain work and a good deal of exciting cat-and-mousing, the duo leads the cops to their prey. And just as you're idly wondering why the case is coming to an end in the middle of the book, Amelia breaks the boy out of jail and goes on the lam. Equally convinced of the boy's guilt and the danger he poses to Amelia, Rhyme has no choice but to aid the police in apprehending the woman he loves--no easy task, as she's the one human being who truly knows the methods of Lincoln Rhyme.

To save the life of a young girl who's being stalked by a ruthless hit man, Lincoln and his protégé, Amelia Sachs, are called upon to do the impossible: solve a truly "cold case" - one that's 140 years old . The Twelfth Card is a two-day cat-and-mouse chase through the streets of up town Manhattan as quadriplegic detective Lincoln Rhyme and Amelia Sachs try to outguess Thompson Boyd - by all appearances a nondescript, innocuous ma n, but one whose past has turned him into a killing machine as unfeeling an d cunning as a wolf. Boyd is after Geneva Settle, a high school girl from H arlem, and it's up to Lincoln and Amelia to figure out why. The motive may have to do with a term paper that Geneva is writing about her ancestor, Charles Singleton, a former slave. A teacher and farmer in New York State, Charles was active in the early civil rights movement but was arrested for theft and disgraced. Assisted by their team, Fred Dellray, Mel Cooper and Lon Sellitto (suffering badly from a case of nerves due to a near miss by the killer), Lincoln and Amelia work frantically to figure out where the hired gun will strike next and stop him, all the while trying to determine what actually happened on that hot July night in 1868 when Charles was arrested.
