Book 8 (of 52) – The Cutting Edge

The Cutting Edge – Jeffery Deaver

The Cutting Edge, the latest Lincoln Rhyme entry from Jeffery Deaver, puts Rhyme and Sachs on the trail of The Promisor, who seems to hate people who use cut diamonds to show expressions of love.  Meanwhile, while Rhyme and Sachs look for the one living witness to the Promisor’s first attack, a string of earthquakes hit Manhattan, threatening a geo-thermal project.

Aside from the first entry of the series, which I read based on my interest in the movie, I’ve gotten the rest of the 8 entries that I’ve read either as remaindered books or as deals from the Kindle store.  So while I haven’t invested a whole lot of money in the series, I’ve certainly invested time in these characters and in Deaver himself.  There are still a few more of his works sitting in my Kindle library, so I’ll be spending more time with him and his work in the future.

30 Day Movie Challenge Day 14 – A Movie That No One Would Expect You To Love

Two sports that I don’t get in to at all are hockey and figure skating, so it does seem kind of out there that I would enjoy a movie about a former hockey player becoming a figure skater along side a former champion.  But, D.B. Sweeney and Moira Kelly headline this film that beat the odds and became one of my favorites.
