Publisher's summary

Longtime defense attorney Mickey Haller is recruited to change stripes and prosecute the high-profile retrial of a brutal child murder. After 24 years in prison, convicted killer Jason Jessup has been exonerated by new DNA evidence. Haller is convinced Jessup is guilty, and he takes the case on the condition that he gets to choose his investigator, LAPD Detective Harry Bosch.

Together, Bosch and Haller set off on a case fraught with political and personal danger. Opposing them is Jessup, now out on bail, a defense attorney who excels at manipulating the media, and a runaway eyewitness reluctant to testify after so many years.

With the odds and the evidence against them, Bosch and Haller must nail a sadistic killer once and for all. If Bosch is sure of anything, it is that Jason Jessup plans to kill again.

Impressed? Ace detective Harry Bosch is also on the case in other exciting Michael Connelly crime-fiction novels.

Hard to stop listening

It was an excellent book. Since I listened to this book driving back-and-forth to work, it was difficult to stop listening at the end of each commute. I was a little disappointed at the ending even though good won over evil. The narration was good except that I did not like the voice that the narrator for Harry Bosch.

Twists and turns all throughout the book!

What about Peter Giles’s performance did you like?

Mickey and Harry Working Together

This book starts and continues at a good pace. The story is suspenseful and keeps you wondering if he did it or not.

Really worth it!

I’m on a Michael Connelly binge right now. This one was particularly good. Unique but believable plot line. Great characters. More depth of development and detail. Narrator still not my favorite, but better in this one than in some I’ve heard him do. Overall recommend!

Great story

It’s an older novel in the Lincoln Lawyer series but still a good one. Made my holiday trip a great one. Thoroughly enjoy anything with Bosch or Holler!

Good read

I lost track of time listening to this book. It was captivating. The narrator, as always, has the characters voice’s defined and transfers from one to another without pause. I love the Lincoln Lawyer series.

Good virtual page turner - not as tight as some

Enjoyed this as a summer beach read. Compelling story and characters. A couple of scenes seemed wasted or implausible - contributing little to the otherwise solid plot.
