Jeffery Deaver returns in this twisty new thriller, as forensic criminalist Lincoln Rhyme and detective Amelia Sachs track a criminal with a bizarre and catastrophic m.o.—toppling the construction cranes in New York City.
When a New York City construction crane mysteriously collapses, causing mass destruction and injury, Rhyme and Sachs are on the case. A political group claims responsibility for the sabotage and threatens another attack in twenty-four hours, unless its demands are met. The clock is ticking.
Then a clue reveals to Rhyme that his nemesis, known as the Watchmaker, has come to town to fulfill his promise of murdering the criminalist. Now Rhyme and Sachs have to dodge his brilliant scheme to destroy them both, while racing against time to stop the construction site terrorists.
With New York in a panic, Rhyme and his team must unravel a handful of plots as tightly wound as a timepiece—before more cranes fall, raining down death and destruction from above.
The New York Times Bestselling master of suspense is back with a riveting thriller, as reward seeker Colter Shaw plunges into the woods and races the clock in a case where nothing is quite what it seems.
Allison Parker is on the run with her teenage daughter, Hannah, and Colter Shaw has been hired by her eccentric boss, entrepreneur Marty Harmon, to find and protect her. Though he's an expert at tracking missing persons - even those who don't wish to be found - Shaw has met his match in Allison, who brings all her skills as a brilliant engineer designing revolutionary technology to the game of evading detection.
The reason for Allison's panicked flight is soon apparent. She's being stalked by her ex-husband, Jon Merritt. Newly released from prison and fueled by blinding rage, Jon is a man whose former profession as a police detective makes him uniquely suited for the hunt. And he's not alone. Two hitmen are also hot on her heels - an eerie pair of thugs who take delight not only in murder but in the sport of devising clever ways to make bodies disappear forever. Even if Shaw manages to catch up with Allison and her daughter, his troubles will just be beginning.
As Shaw ventures further into the wilderness, the truth becomes as hard to decipher as the forest's unmarked trails... and peril awaits at every turn.

In this "New York Times" bestseller, twenty-six renowned" "thriller
authors team up to create a first-rate serial novel--a
collaboration that combines the skills of America's greatest
storytellers to produce a single gripping, spellbinding mystery.
"The lineup of writers who have contributed to this mystery is akin
to the Murderers' Row of the 1927 New York Yankees. There is not a
weak spot in the bunch." --David Baldacci, from the Introduction
Alexander McCall Smith. Sandra Brown. Faye Kellerman. J.A. Jance.
Jeffery Deaver. Kathy Reichs. Lisa Scottoline. Jeff Lindsay. These
are only a handful of the names that make up the all-star lineup of
authors behind "No Rest for the Dead," a tale of vengeance, greed,
and love that flows seamlessly, in the words of David Baldacci, "as
it passes from one creator's mind to the next."
When Christopher Thomas, a ruthless curator at San Francisco's
McFall Art Museum, is murdered and his decaying body is found in an
iron maiden in a Berlin museum, his wife, Rosemary, is the primary
suspect, and she is tried, convicted, and executed. Ten years
later, Jon Nunn, the detective who cracked the case, is convinced
that the wrong person was put to death. In the years since the case
was closed, he's discovered a web of deceit and betrayal
surrounding the Thomases that could implicate any number of people
in the crime. With the help of the dead woman's friend, he plans to
gather everyone who was there the night Christopher died and
finally uncover the truth, suspect by suspect. Solving this case
may be Nunn's last chance for redemption...but the shadowy forces
behind Christopher's death will stop at nothing to silence the past
forever.
In this innovative storytelling approach, each of these twenty-five
bestselling writers brings their distinctive voice to a chapter of
the narrative, building the tension to a shocking, explosive
finale. "No Rest" "for the Dead "is a thrilling, page-turning
accomplishment that only America's very best authors could achieve.
