About this listen

SOME CRIMES LIGHT A FIRE THAT NEVER GOES OUT...

A JUDGE MURDERED IN A CITY PARK

Mickey Haller, the Lincoln Lawyer, defends the man accused.

A HOMELESS PERSON BURNED ALIVE

Detective Renée Ballard catches the case on the LAPD's notorious graveyard shift.

AN UNSOLVED HOMICIDE FROM A LIFETIME AGO

Harry Bosch is left a missing case file by his mentor who passed away. He was the man who taught Bosch that everybody counts, or nobody counts. Why did he keep the case all these years? To find the truth - or bury it?

IN L.A. CRIME NEVER SLEEPS

But in Ballard, Bosch and Haller: the fire always burns. Will it light the way - or leave their lives in ashes?

CRIME DOESN'T COME BETTER THAN CONNELLY.

©2019 Michael Connelly (P)2019 Orion Publishing Group Crime Crime Thrillers Fiction Mystery Police Procedural Suspense Thriller Thriller & Suspense Law Detective

I have read the series of Bosch and now thoroughly enjoy his collaboration with Ballard. Looking forward to the next exploit. Titus Welliver and Christine Lakin brought the characters to life. Well worth a listen.

Outstanding performance of a brilliant book.I wish I had the words to do this audiobook justice, but whatever I say feels inadequate.
I’m a huge HB fan, I’m a cop in a completely different country yet somehow the writing identifies and portrays the types of personalities that you find in law enforcement.
Some of the conflicting attitudes, arrogance, determination and disinterest described are completely universal, yet somehow entirely unique to Harry and his partners.

Listen to this book, I’m sure you won’t disagree.

Raising the bar.

This was one of the best Bosch books I read. Multiple stories come nicely to a conclusion. Great performance.
