"Ugh." according to KellyP.. I love Deaver. Ive read every single one. I wasn't that thrilled about the last one, and it seems it keeps going downhill. I haven't finished it yet. I'm about halfway in and it just doesn't have that feel to it. That gripping suspense the Lincoln Rhyme books have.It rambles on and on about the Italian law force set up and procedures. Rhyme and Sacks play a smaller part in this book, and most of the focus is on these Italian officers. Again, it rambles on and on.It's just not that interesting to me. I keep waiting for it to pick up and it's just not. Hate to say I'm going to . Rosalind869 rosalind i. prince I've read all of Deaver's books and usually can't put them down until the last page. I love the characters: Lincoln, Amelia, Tom and the other New York police. The Italian police do not have same synergy.This does not feel as if it was written by the same author.

The majority of the book takes place in Italy and was told through the eyes of an Italian officer, who I enjoyed as a character, but too much of the b
