Editorial Review (from Amazon.com)
Geneva Settle is a bright young high school student from Harlem writing a paper about one of her ancestors, a former slave called Charles Singleton. Geneva is also the target of a ruthless professional killer. Criminalist Lincoln Rhyme and his policewoman partner Amelia Sachs are called into the case, working frantically to anticipate where the hired gun will strike next and how to stop him, all the while trying to get to the truth of Charles Singleton, and the reason that Geneva has been targeted. For Charles Singleton had a secret - a secret that may strike at the very heart of the United States constitution, and have disastrous consequences for human rights today. And Sachs is going to have to search a crime scene that's 140 years old before she can stop the killer.User Reviews (1) Login or create an account to write a review.

If you are a Lincoln Rhyme fan, then this book will not disappoint you. All the usual elements like intricate details of forensic methods and practices are explained in detail.
The story is about a teenage girl who finds that someone is trying to kill her. Who is the culprit is the story with Deaver providing drama at odd moments...
