The Burial Hour by Jeffery Deaver is the latest Lincoln Rhyme novel. "Someone has kidnapped a businessman off the streets of NY and his dying is now streaming online. Bad guy gets away and ends up in Italy. And so do Sachs and Rhyme." This book is about 150 pages too long. Deaver has fallen into a trap of over explaining and it distracts from the story. I wonder why an editor doesn't clean it up. I'm a reader, not a writer, but if something doesn't add to the story should it be in there? If you are a Deaver fan, you may want to read this, but don't rush to bump it up in the TBR pile. This book takes a couple of weird turns near the end also. Not one of Deaver's best. #theburialhour #jefferydeaver #crimefiction #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #bookshelf #books #booknerd #bookhoarder #bookworm #booklover #bookish #bookreview #bookclub #bookaddict #bookaholic #bookcover #bookhaul #bibliophile #igreads #goodreads #thefinchbook #homelibrary #bradsbooks #bradslibrary #worldbookday
