À propos de ce contenu audio

 Forced out of the Los Angeles Times amid the latest budget cuts, newspaperman Jack McEvoy decides to go out with a bang, using his final days at the paperto write the definitive murder story of his career.

He focuses on Alonzo Winslow, a 16-year-old drug dealer in jail after confessing to a brutal murder. But as he delves into the story, Jack realizes that Winslow's so-called confession is bogus. The kid might actually be innocent.

Jack is soon running with his biggest story since The Poetmade his career years ago. He is tracking a killer who operates completely below police radar--and with perfect knowledge of any move against him. Including Jack's.

Commentaires

"Narrator Peter Giles delivers the crisp and compelling copy with a deadpan tone and a pace that advances like Patton through Italy. Scenes involving the stalking of McEvoy and Walling raise hairs at the back of the listener's neck. Great characters and a satisfying ending cement Connelly's place as one of the best crime novelists working today."—AudioFile

I was a bit... put off at the beginning. Very mean people....
But the plot was so brilliant that I got quickly hooked. The momentum and the thrill lasted forever. Brilliant writer. Brilliant performances

Brillant. Loved it.

From the very beginning, we’re instantly immersed in Jack McAvoy’s world, so specific and well-crafted. And as always with Michael Connelly, there’s no shiny or glamorous success for his main characters between books. Jack is no exception. It takes a couple of hours to fully set the story, but once it’s in place, it becomes dynamic and gripping. Maybe it’s not as captivating as the Lincoln Lawyer or Harry Bosch series, but it still carries Connelly’s trademark style, straightforward, punchy writing that pulls you back in, chapter after chapter. Compared to other Connelly novels I’ve read, this one feels very modern, definitely written in the new millennium. You can sense it through the plot, which is well crafted and that gives the book a contemporary feel. It’s also a pleasure to see Rachel Walling return. The way she enters the story gives it a fresh energy and pushes the plot forward. Overall, it’s a solid novel. A good one.

A good read but not as thrilling or gripping as The Poet. A shame they but music behind the reading at certain times as it didn't make any sense or brought anything extra to the content.
