XO: Kathryn Dance Book 3 - Kathryn Dance thrillers (Paperback)
Jeffery Deaver (author)- In stock online
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 Lincoln 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 are able to download it from www.jefferydeaver.com.

Not his best! I can't really add much more than the other reviewer. It felt too much like I was reading an instruction manual on how to read people. A shame as I've enjoyed the previous Kathryn Dance novels...
“A dance to the music of crime...”
As you can see from the synopsis, this is the latest in Jeffrey Deaver’s ‘Kathryn Dance’ series and what could be a fairly straightforward tale of celebrity stalking is differentiated from the standard fare by... More
“No longer on my favourite author list.”
I did enjoy the previous Kathryn Dance thrillers but have felt seriously let down by other recent Deaver books. This series has also gone the same way. I felt like I was being instructed rather than entertained. The... More
