The Forgotten Room

by Lincoln Child

The Forgotten Room (Jeremy Logan #4)


         Jeremy Logan is not your typical investigator, he’s an enigmalogist, an investigator of events that have no obvious explanation. In Child’s third novel to feature Logan, his expertise is requested at an exclusive think tank in Rhode Island. One of the researchers has seemingly gone mad and killed himself in a particularly gruesome and graphic manner. It is Logan’s job to find out what happened to precipitate this death. In the course of his investigation, Logan discovers a hidden room, long forgotten by the current staff, where the mysterious Project S was conducted decades ago. What was Project S, and why did all the files on it disappear? As more researchers become delusional and attempt suicide, Logan needs to find the answers fast.

            What makes Child’s novels so good is his ability to fuse mystery and science in wholly believable story lines. The science never slows down the breakneck speed of his novels. Instead, it only enhances the story line.  The Forgotten Room doesn’t disappoint on either.

            This is a novel for fans of mysteries, suspense and/or science.
