title: The Cutting Edge (A Lincoln Rhyme Novel)
author:  Jeffery Deaver 
description: "Deaver's approach excels in THE CUTTING EDGE, the 14th novel to feature Lincoln and his assistant, Amelia Sachs... Deaver keeps the level of suspense high as he also examines the gem trade and takes readers on an insider's tour of New York City. Deaver's intelligent characters show their mettle as the twists mount."<b><i>Oline Cogdill, <em>South Florida Sun-Sentinel</em></i></b><br /><br />"Stellar... The tension rises [and] Deaver keeps the twists and surprises coming in this roller-coaster ride of a thriller."<b><i><em>Publishers Weekly</em> (starred review)</i></b><br /><br />"Deaver is at his graciously cruel best in THE CUTTING EDGE. [His] singular flair for ghastly irony is on full display. Sympathetic characters... Deaver seduces us."<b><i>Marilyn Stasio, New York Times Book Review</i></b><br /><br />
