The Bone Collector

This page is currently under construction. Please feel free to help it grow.

A thriller from 1999 (and first book in the Lincoln Rhyme series), the main characters are forensics expert Lincoln Rhyme (Denzel Washington) and a patrol cop, Amelia Donaghy (Angelina Jolie), who team up to solve a string of murders. The thing linking them togather is that the killer always removes a shard of bone from the victims.

The first victims are a couple named Alan and Lindsay Rubin who are kidnapped by the killer after taking a taxi hone. Alan's body is found in a civil-war era bed. There is also a piece of shell, which leads to a piece of paper, which leads to his wife. They find her too late, scalded to death by steam. Another piece of paper is found.

Next victim is a NYU student. He is found at an abandoned slaughterhouse, after being gutted and left for the rats. A piece of paper is found.
