This was an interesting book with a lot of intersecting story lines.
it is not my favorite Jeffery Deaver novel. I prefer the focus on evidence collection and analyzation in the Lincoln Rhyme novels.

I loved the work completed in conjunction with the Italian police force and how the story ended. Another great Lincoln Rhyme novel.

Ah, Lincoln Rhyme, one of my favorite fictional characters. Lincoln's no-nonsense approach to forensics and evidence collection keeps me coming back for more. I love that he always tries to keep conjecture and gut feelings out of the process and just let the evidence do the talking.

Final Showdown, but Write Your Own Ending
Review of the Amazon Original Stories Kindle eBook (December 13, 2022).

After several twists earlier in the series you would hope that the finale would provide a satisfactory resolution. We now get to see the actual jailbreak which preceded the doctor vs. patient confrontation in The Pain Hunter (#1) leading to a final confrontation of the lead criminal with our vigilante. But it all ends with an Unsatisfactory Ending Alert™ due to unresolved issues (no spoiler here). Frustratingly this same pattern is repeated in the author's later work The Rule of Threes (2024) (which includes some of the same characters), giving the impression that this is becoming a trademark.

The significance of The Broken Doll title becomes clear in this series finale.

Sixty-One Seconds is the final novella #4 of 4 interrelated stories issued in The Broken Doll series.
