Lua Fria por Jeffery Deaver

Neste livro, Deaver envolve a dupla de investigadores Lincoln Rhyme e Amelia Sachs numa série de crimes genialmente orquestrados. O assassino é o autodenominado Relojoeiro - nas duas primeiras cenas de crime ele já deixou sua marca, um relógio com a face da Lua que marca os últimos momentos da vítima. Rhyme e Sachs serão obrigados a correr contra o tempo e evitar que a série de mortes desse gênio do crime continue.

O Colecionador de Ossos por Jeffery Deaver

Lincoln Rhyme é um criminologista, um gênio da investigação médica forense. Mas sua carreira é interrompida por um acidente que o deixa tetraplégico, preso a uma cama. Seu isolamento do mundo termina quando um assassino começa a espalhar vítimas mutiladas pela cidade de Nova York- Rhyme é o único que pode detê-lo. Com a ajuda da detetive Amelia Sachs, eles tentam desvendar o labirinto de pistas para evitar o próximo crime do 'Colecionador de Ossos'.
