What is Tanečník about?

Tanečník is an exceptionally skilled killer whom the police struggle to identify or capture. His task is to eliminate witnesses before they can testify. Lincoln Rhyme works with police officer Amelia Sachs, using forensic evidence, logic, and detailed crime-scene analysis to anticipate the killer's next move. The only distinctive clue is a tattoo depicting the Grim Reaper dancing with a woman in front of a coffin. As time runs out, the investigation becomes a contest between two exceptionally capable opponents, with Deaver weaving in false leads and unexpected twists.
