From Publishers Weekly

Kathryn Dance, an investigator with the California Bureau of Investigation, returns from Deaver's The Cold Moon (where she was a secondary) in this post–prison break pulse-pounder. Dance is the lead cop handling the escape of psychopathic killer Daniel Pell, dubbed "Son of Manson" by the press for his "family" of young runaways and his most horrendous crime, the murders of computer engineer William Croyton, Croyton's wife and two of their three children. The only child left alive, nine-year-old Theresa, is known as the Sleeping Doll. Pell, charismatic and diabolically intelligent, continually eludes capture, but Dance, a specialist in interrogation and kinesics (or body language), is never more than a few suspenseful minutes behind. Dance is nicely detailed, and procedural scenes where she uses somatic cues to ferret out liars are fascinating. The book sags in its long middle, but toward the end Deaver digs into his bottomless bag of unexpected twists and turns, keeping readers wide-eyed with surprise, and leaving them looking forward to more of the perspicacious Dance.

From AudioFile

Daniel Pell, convicted of multiple brutal murders, breaks out of jail and escapes into the Monterey Peninsula landscape. Special Agent Kathryn Dance, a methodical investigator and skilled interrogator, is assigned to lead the case. Pell continually frustrates his pursuers by doing the unexpected, staying close to his escape point and leaving a trail of corpses. Narrator Anne Twomey provides a deliberate narration that matches the tempo of the prolonged and bloody investigation. Twomey is particularly skilled at vocalizing emotion--ranging from the arrogance of Pell to the terror of his victims. There are lots of twists as this story races to a surprising conclusion.

5.0étoiles sur 5 An Absolutely Great Book!, Mars 16 2008
Par MacFly (Regina, Saskatchewan) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
I loved The Sleeping Doll by Jeffrey Deaver! This is the second book by this author that I have read; the first being The Cold Moon. I really enjoyed his first one and loved this one! The Sleeping Doll is written so well that, fifteen minutes into the book, a major event has taken place and the thrill of the chase of a psychotic murderer is on. The main character of Kathryn Dance is appealing, smart and interesting. I just love the writing style of this author. Every page is brilliantly easy to read and the twists and turns, while everyone believable, many are unexpected. I loved that I was surprised by what took place in the book - a Jeffrey Deaver book is never predictable! And the book is incredibly easy to read - I spent many a night staying up much too late because it was just too good to put down! I highly recommend this book!

4.0étoiles sur 5 Introducing Kathryn Dance, a new female investigator, Déc 20 2009
Par Paul Weiss (Dundas, Ontario Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
Most thriller fans will pick up a Michael Connelly novel expecting that it's going to be about Harry Bosch. Similarly, most Jeffrey Deaver fans (and I expect there's a whole pile of crossover), will pick up one of his novels expecting a story about Lincoln Rhyme and his erstwhile lover, Amelia Sachs. So it's a very pleasant and unexpected surprise to be treated to a new heroine in Kathryn Dance, an investigator with the California Bureau of Investigation who is known for her near psychic interrogation skills, Kathryn Dance is a master of kinesics, the ability to read body language, facial tics, changes in skin tone, key words, intonation and the hundreds of other tiny indicators that let a skilled questioner know whether a subject is lying, uncomfortable, attempting to mislead, frightened or, in some other fashion, is simply avoiding the truth.

"The Sleeping Doll" is the story of Daniel Pell, a modern day Charles Manson serving life in a maximum security institution for the brutal, gruesome slaughter of the Carmel family - everyone in the family, that is, except for the little girl who was asleep in her bed when the murders took place. Now the "sleeping doll", as she was dubbed by the media when her family was taken from her, is a teenager and Kathryn Dance needs her help and her distant memories to re-capture Daniel Pell who has engineered a daring escape from custody and looks to be on the killing warpath again!

As a thriller, "The Sleeping Doll" is certainly workmanlike and quite compelling. The plot is exciting and there are more than sufficient twists and turns to keep a reader well glued to the pages. But it doesn't leap off the pages and stick in one's reading memory or have that deep down gut-wrenching shock value that would put it into a league with Thomas Harris' "Silence of the Lambs", for example.

The most enjoyable feature of "The Sleeping Doll" is actually the serious discussion of the science (or art) of kinesics. Deaver has also done a yeoman's job putting us into the very creepy mind of a serial killer in those sections where he has placed Daniel Pell into the role of a first person narrator.

I'll look forward to Kathryn Dance's return performance in her next novel "Roadside Crosses". Highly recommended.

Paul Weiss
