What is everywhere, yet kills without a trace?
Substations belonging to New York City’s Algonquin Power Company begin failing one after another. A massive current converges at the center of Manhattan’s Substation Ten, triggering an arc-flash explosion unlike anything seen before. The victim dies a gruesome death, his body pierced by countless metal spheres melted by the current, turning him into a “man full of holes.”
Be warned: this killer is an expert in electricity, and controlling current is second nature to him. Stay away from metal, keep clear of water, and don’t let your guard down, or you could be next!
The tricky case naturally falls to armchair detective Lincoln Rhyme and his partner Amelia Sachs. As the detectives face off against a devil who wields electricity, the killer’s astonishing identity gradually comes to light...
Moreover, the criminal investigation knowledge in the book is very rich, and I felt like I had become a detective. I just got married, and when I read this book, I thought about what I would do if something like this happened to me. This book made me more alert to the dangers in life, and also made me cherish my current happiness more. I think you will also like this book!
The plot is compact, exciting, full of twists and turns, and fascinating!
I didn't guess who was behind the scenes. Using electricity to commit crimes is very novel.
