Lincoln Rhyme was the department's top homicide detective and leading expert in criminal forensics until an injury left him paralyzed, depressed, and incapable of working. But when a gruesome murder in Manhattan leaves detectives baffled, they call on Rhyme to help solve the mystery. Amelia Donaghy, a rookie cop whose quick thinking preserved a gruesome murder scene, is enlisted by Rhyme to be his on-the-scene forensics expert. With Amelia reluctantly acting as Rhyme's able-bodied go-between, the pair piece together cryptic clues the killer leaves behind at the scene of the crime, hoping to catch the grisly serial killer.

A mad killer spreads death and fear with a series of atrocious murders according to a plan of lucid madness. The only policeman capable of stopping him is forced to remain immobile in a bed due to an accident, so he decides to collaborate with a young and enterprising policewoman; the man will be the mind and she the "arm" of the investigations. Hollywood produces another thriller-horror (to be honest, more thriller than horror) starring two of the stars of the moment Denzel Washington (decent but not particularly inspired) and especially the beautiful and talented Angelina Jolie. Some bloody sequences, a final twist but a plot a bit too confusing. Decent, suitable for lovers of the genre.
