Publisher's Summary
FROM THE #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE HARRY BOSCH AND LINCOLN LAWYER SERIES
An electrifying standalone thriller that breaks all the rules!
Death is reporter Jack McEvoy's beat: his calling, his obsession. But this time, death brings McEvoy the story he never wanted to write - and the mystery he desperately needs to solve. A serial killer of unprecedented savagery and cunning is at large. His targets: homicide cops, each haunted by a murder case he couldn't crack. The killer's calling card: a quotation from the works of Edgar Allan Poe. His latest victim is McEvoy's own brother. And his last...may be McEvoy himself.

Great story, well developed characters
I enjoyed this offering so much, that I'm going to look for the next offering by the author in the series. Writte nin 2008, the characters didnt have as much tachnology (iPads, mobile phones etc) available to them today as modern writers, which honestly just made for a more interesting listen. I loved the way this story unfolded, and I was not able to identify the killer ahead of time . . . . I would definately recommend this title.

Great story with an amazing twist. Very well read.
As with all Connelly's books this has a great story line and an unseen twist. 10/10

I wasn’t sure what to expect having never read any of Michael Connelly work before but I’m hooked now!

What a gripping tale.
Another classic who done it from Michael Connelly. Couldn’t put this one down. Can’t wait to read the Harry Bosch sequel.

The tension is kept throughout and the "twist" is very plausible. Great crime thriller
Very well read. Great characterisation by author and narrator. Jack McEviy may be a bit too clever, but hey, isn't all crime fiction?

First Michael Connelly book I have listened to.
Loved the story from beginning to end. Will read more late when I have read other books.
