Description
INSPIRATION FOR THE ORIGINAL SERIES THE LINCOLN LAWYER – THE #1 TV SHOW ON NETFLIX
The stakes have never been higher: when DNA evidence frees a sadistic killer, defense attorney Mickey Haller and LAPD Detective Harry Bosch must put him behind bars before he strikes again. Longtime defense attorney Mickey Haller is recruited to change stripes and prosecute the high-profile retrial of a brutal child murder. After twenty-four 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.
Reviews
Women are not that difficult
1By Ace ManifoldI stopped reading it when Bosch was having problems with his daughter. Connelly himself seems to have a problem with women. I suppose this is intended to add depth, but I just get annoyed.Michael connelly
5By Bibi Cakes1Excellent bookGreat book
5By Baw9451As always, Connolly reaches out and grabs you by the shirt collar and refuses to let go until the very end.Now my favorite Haller & Bosch book
5By Grunt11bThis book has been so much fun. About half way through it was hard to put down.Vintage Connelly
4By LeeArlingtonA taut thriller with a lukewarm ending that left me “up in the air”I love Connelly’s books, but not this one
2By JLeavesley29It was confusing, and difficult to hold my interest. I will pay more attention to the ratings from now on. I just assumed all his books were great.Ending
3By O'SeayInteresting characters, good plot, moves along nicely, keeps your interest. However, it ends a bit abruptly and leaves a lot of unanswered questions. What happened to Sarah? What was Jesse’s motive? Was he a serial killer? Were there other bodies? Etc.Ballet and Bosch
5By TrishinthewoodsFace paced courtroom drama with Bosch in charge of the investigation.The Reversal
