Former NYPD detective and forensic genius Lincoln Rhyme was at the top of his game until a serious accident at the hands of a notorious serial killer forced him out of the field. When Amelia Sachs, an intuitive young officer who has a gift for profiling, finds herself hot on the killer's trail, Rhyme finds a partner for this new game of cat and mouse. As the unlikely detective duo join forces to crack the city's most confounding cases, they must also race to take down the enigmatic killer who brought them together. Inspired by the best-selling book "The Bone Collector."

Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter 01/17/2020
[The pilot] moves fast and efficiently sets up a workable series that could blend weekly procedural elements with an ongoing - and very familiar - serial killer mystery. It's not instantly gripping. But it's definitely better than its title. Go to Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com 01/09/2020
While way too much of Lincoln Rhyme is leaden and flat, there's still something there in Hornsby's performance that reminds you how good he can be with the right material. Go to Full Review Caroline Framke Variety 01/08/2020
Follows the lead of umpteen serial killer stories so closely that it ends up a paint-by-numbers collision of predictable tropes. Go to Full Review Natalia Trzenko La Nación (Argentina) 05/18/2020
Lincoln Rhyme sets itself apart from other series of its type in the construction of its villain. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Melissa Camacho Common Sense Media 02/07/2020
2/5
Popular crime novel adaptation is violent, predictable. Go to Full Review Dustin Rowles Pajiba 01/17/2020
There's a lot going on in the pilot - three murders, three investigations! - but I assure you that none of it is particularly interesting. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

10/05/2020 Lincoln rhyme is not black!!!! See more 05/12/2020 Trailer looked good, as I liked the movie thought I would enjoy this but the acting is very poor and stupid things they do in the story make it too unbelievable to watch. Got through two episodes and think that will be enough. See more 04/20/2020 I didn't find myself comparing this series to the Angelina/Denzel movie. I have loved Deaver's series of books. His writing is so much better than that in these series. The drama in this is cheap. I was disappointed with some of the changes they made in casting — replacing Lincoln's gay male attendant with a black woman. Also requisite weird nerd girl (cf NCIS, etc) added. Amelia is more diffident in the series than in the books. Also, Lincoln is actually not grumpy enough. I really like Selitto tho. See more 04/16/2020 Love this show, great thriller, edge of your seat stuff. This is a keeper See more 03/19/2020 Really bad writing, especially the penultimate and ultimate episode. See more 03/16/2020 Started watching this with good intentions.nice cast.problem is..the only capable person working for the poĺice became a serial killer.all the others end up either tied up or killed or whatever.script for laughs.
