Summary
On a freezing December night in New York, two people are brutally murdered--the death scenes marked by eerie, matching calling cards: moon-faced clocks. Renowned criminologist Lincoln Rhyme immediately identifies the clock distributor and has the chilling realization that the killer--who has dubbed himself the Watchmaker--has more murders planned in the hours to come. Rhyme, a quadriplegic long confined to his wheelchair, immediately taps his trusted partner and longtime love, Amelia Sachs, to walk the grid and be his eyes and ears on the street. But Sachs has other commitments now--namely, her first assignment as lead detective on a homicide of her own. As she struggles to balance her pursuit of the elusive Watchmaker with her own case, Sachs unearths shocking revelations about the police force that threaten to undermine her career, her sense of self, and her relationship with Rhyme
