XO: Kathryn Dance | Jeffery Deaver
7 posts | 17 read | 6 to read
The third Kathryn Dance novel from Number One bestseller Jeffery Deaver. Kayleigh Towne is a beautiful and successful singer-songwriter, and Edwin Sharp is her biggest fan. When she replies to one of his fan letters with 'XO', Edwin is convinced she loves him, and that her latest hit song 'Your Shadow' was written for him. Nothing Kayleigh or her lawyers can say persuades him otherwise. Then the singer gets an anonymous phone call; it's the first verse of 'Your Shadow' playing. Soon after, one of the crew is horribly murdered. Kayleigh's friend Kathryn Dance, a special agent with the California Bureau of Investigation, knows that stalking crimes are not one-off occurrences, and, sure enough, more verses of the song are played as warnings of death to follow. With a little help from forensic criminalist Lincolyn Rhyme, Dance must use her kinesic and investigative skills in an attempt to find the killer before more people die. Deaver has written the actual song, 'Your Shadow'. Readers will be able to download it from www.jefferydeaver.com.

Read this many years ago but can‘t remember much. Blurb says ‘.. A beautiful young star is stalked by an obsessive fan who thinks her big hit song was written just for him.‘

I think this is the 3rd in a series that revolves around an agent in the California Bureau of Investigation who is an expert in reading people‘s gestures, expressions, etc - it‘s called ‘kinesics‘. I‘ve not read the first two and am not sure I will, but this was twisty and kept me interested. Also, it‘s my last book for this year‘s #LitsyAtoZ #LetterX!

Mehso-so

I only read this because I needed a book for the letter X for#litsyatoz. I really didn't like it at all, but I'll be generous and give it a so-so. I felt like I was being bludgeoned by examples of the investigators' deductive reasoning skills and I found the kinesics angle annoying. In spite of their supposedly great skills, the investigators managed to basically get everything wrong and do very stupid things along the way.
