Download The Twelfth Card: Lincoln Rhyme, Book 6 AudioBook Free
Bestselling master of suspense Jeffrey Deaver is back with a brand-new Lincoln Rhyme thriller. To save lots of the life of a young girl who's being stalked with a ruthless hit man. Lincoln and his protege, Amelia Sachs, are called after to do the impossible: solve a really "cold case" -- one that's 140 yrs . old.
The Twelfth Card is a two-day cat-and-mouse chase through the streets of uptown Manhattan as quadriplegic detective Lincoln Rhyme and Amelia Sachs make an effort to outguess Thompson Boyd a man whose past has turned him into a killing machine as unfeeling and cunning as a wolf. Boyd is after Geneva Settle, a higher school girl from Harlem, and it's really 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. Charles was mixed up in early civil rights movement, but was arrested for theft and disgraced. Lincoln and Amelia work frantically to figure out what actually happened on that hot July night in 1868 when Charles was arrested.
Deaver's inimitable plotting keeps this story racing at a lightening-fast clip. With breathtaking twists and multiple surprises, this is Deaver's most compelling Lincoln Rhyme audiobook at this point.
