The Kill Room by Jeffrey Deaver

Title: The Kill Room
Author: Jeffrey Deaver
Did I listen or read?: library book
When did I finish?: September 4, 2016
When was the book published: 2013
Main Characters: Lincoln Rhyme, Amelia Sachs, Thom, Nance Laurel,Jacob Swann, Robert Moreno, Mychal Poitier, Metzger
What happens? Moreno is executed as a threat to the US by Metzger's NIOS operation by a skilled assassin, but there's layers of things wrong.  Two people die from broken glass from the kill shot, and Swann sets out to eradicate everyone involved with Moreno or the operation.
How long was this? 486 pages
Did I like this? Pretty good, definitely would like to read more Rhyme stories.  A bit convoluted and long - you think you know what happened, so it's not a mystery, but he throws in a lot of plot twists and turns.  The technique of the surprise reveal gets a little bit old.
Overall grade: B+
