Hailed as “the smartest conspirator on the planet” (Publishers Weekly), Jeffrey Deaver returns in this twisty new thriller as forensic criminologist Lincoln Rhyme and Detective Amelia Sachs track a criminal who’s committed bizarre and catastrophic acts—toppling construction cranes in New York City.

When a construction crane in New York City mysteriously collapses, causing massive damage and loss of life, Rhyme and Sachs begin investigating. A political group claims responsibility for the sabotage and threatens to attack again within 24 hours unless their demands are met. The clock is ticking.
Then a clue reveals to Rhyme that his old nemesis, the Watchmaker, has come to town to fulfill a promise to kill the Crimemaster. Now Rhyme and Sachs must evade the Watchmaker’s brilliant plan while racing against time to stop the terrorists on the construction site.
As New York descends into panic, Rhyme and his team must unravel a conspiracy that’s working like clockwork – before more cranes collapse, raining death and destruction from the sky.
