The New York Times bestselling author and master of suspense returns with a devious collection, featuring two never-before published stories in which fan favorites Colter Shaw, adapted for TV (CBS’s Tracker, starring Justin Hartley), and Lincoln Rhyme are united by the layers of deception taking over New York City.

A murder at a crime writers’ conference. The method is entirely literary, the motive seems obvious—but can the detective who was first on the scene puzzle out what needs reading between the lines?

A brilliant sleuth, obsessed with Sherlock Holmes’s mysteries, turns his attention to a serial killer running rampage in New York City. But as his deductions bring him closer to his prey he starts to wonder who is really doing the hunting.

A mysterious woman has gone into hiding and Colter Shaw is tasked with bringing her to a safe house. But with a hitman on his trails, the chase toward safety takes on a whole new meaning.

No stranger to the cat-and-mouse chase or our favorite twists and turns, Jeffery Deaver brings his chops to Deceptions, where every story unearths our deceptions and the truths that lie buried deep under.
