The vanished man by jeffery deaver6/28/2023 Forensic and eyewitness clues point to a culprit with magic training looking for expert help, Sachs encounters an aspiring illusionist, who goes by the stage name of Kara, who agrees to help her and Rhyme. Caught in the act, the killer vanishes from a sealed room. The novel opens with the murder of a young female student at a music school on Manhattan's Upper West Side. It's fitting, then, that in his new, giddily entertaining story about quadriplegic crime fighter Rhyme, he casts as his villain a professional illusionist-and an apprentice magician as assistant to Rhyme and Rhyme's cop sidekick–lover, Amelia Sachs. Fans of Deaver know that he works storytelling magic in his thrillers, not just the Lincoln Rhyme tales ( The Stone Monkey, etc.) but also the stand-alones ( The Blue Nowhere, etc.).
