About this listen

 Lincoln Rhyme's cousin has been arrested for murder. The evidence clearly shows he did it, but Rhyme agrees to check things out. It turns out that the cousin, along with other people, has been wrongly convicted because the true killer knows every single detail about the lives of the victims he kills and the men he sets up to take the fall for those crimes.

Rhyme, Sachs and the rest of the team have to find out who at the huge, ominous data mining company is getting access to this information. Meanwhile the villain realises he's being pursued and turns his knowledge of data and information into a weapon...

Lincoln Rhyme's cousin has been arrested for murder which he did not commit although most felons would say that, and he hasn't reached out to Rhyme since his accident but his wife does and Lincoln promises to look into the case. It's a lot more of personal identity theft and what you can do and get up to if you are computer literate.
As with all Rhymes books, there is a lot going on and still has all the usual clans there working with him as well as their day jobs.
The audio is near 14hrs long and as with all Deavers books there is also a lot of meaningful waffle but once past that it's a good story.

Excellent story, couldn't stop listening! Kept us guessing and on the edge of our seats until the very end.

My favourite

I deliberately sought out a Deaver novel narrated by George Guidall. Having listened to the Cold Moon, I was keen to repeat the experience of the perfect voice for the story. And I found it. Loved it.

Love the combination of writer & narrator

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend this book as it is up to JDs standards. Great reading. Gripping, tense and perfectly crafted.

What other book might you compare The Broken Window to, and why?

This book is comparable to any other Deaver novels. It has all the attributes that make a thriller stand out above all others.

the narrator keeps you listening even when you want a cup of tea or wee, and the speed of his narrating the parts where you are carried along at a pace you can feel the tension and excitement in his voice, it really adds to the pleasure of listening to this audio book and typical Deaver twist and final solving are brilliant. A great listen

perfect reading of this book

An interesting voyage into a world of identity theft with a dark and violent plot. Kept me gripped throughout! I really enjoyed this book - a twisting intriguing plot.

Great story

Really cruel to say it but the narrator makes the book live for me, and although I did get get used to George Guidall, he really doesn't do it for me.
Usual well thought out Jefferey Deaver/Lincoln Rhyme book but it really took some getting into. Naming all the victims with numbers began to pall (oops sorry)... and if it wasn't for the fact I knew that it really was a good story ( if for no other reason than it was JD with a Lincoln R) I would maybe have given up. It took me until the second part to really get into it.
I don't think I'll go for any more books narrated by G G... sorry...
Just goes to show it is the narrator who makes or breaks

Just bnaint the same without Jeff Harding
