THE BESTSELLING SERIES THAT INSPIRED AMAZON PRIME'S BALLARD AND BOSCH

'Michael Connelly is a powerhouse, an unstoppable force in crime fiction. The Waiting is proof he is at the top of his game."

MICK HERRON, #1 bestselling author of SLOW HORSES

****

IN COLD CASES,
IT'S NOT THE HOPE THAT KILLS YOU.
IT'S THE WAITING.

LAPD Detective Renée Ballard gets a DNA hit in a case that has gone unsolved for twenty years. A recently arrested man is genetically related to a serial rapist who terrorised the city of angels.

But when the relative is revealed, it is the last person you want to accuse unless the evidence is watertight...

With the help of the newest volunteer to the cold case unit - patrol officer Maddie Bosch, Harry's daughter - Ballard finally has another badge on the team. But Maddie has an ulterior motive for getting access to the city's library of souls.

Because some crimes have been waiting to be solved longer than others...

An electrifying and authoritative page-turner from one of the greatest crime writers of all-time - the author behind Amazon Prime's Bosch and Netflix's The Lincoln Lawyer.

I enjoyed the story. Some police/thriller novels are too formulaic and predictable, so I was rather pleased that my attention was kept for the duration of the audiobook. I also enjoyed hearing the voices of the actors who play the same characters in the TV series. Titus Welliver does a very convincing Bosch.

Well-written and well-performed
