The Bone Collector is a 1997 thriller novel by Jeffery Deaver introducing Lincoln Rhyme, a quadriplegic forensic criminalist.
HOW does a quadriplegic solve crimes?
He has to be a genius.
This is an excellent book. It was fun to see how Rhyme first meets his future partner, Amelia Sachs. She's a bit of a disaster as a NYPD Patrol Officer — but Rhyme sees potential.
The killer is well written, as always with Deaver.
And there are plenty of twists and turns to the plot.
It was adapted for Hollywood in 1999, starring Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie.

NBC had a TV adaptation, as well, that I haven't seen. It looks even better than the film though it got low ratings. They've changed the book to be more entertaining. But only lasted 1 season.
