HOW DO YOU FIND A KILLER WHO KNOWS EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU?
THE INSTANT NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER
‘AS EXCITING AS ANYTHING CONNELLY HAS WRITTEN’ THE TIMES
‘UTTERLY COMPELLING … THIS IS CONNELLY AT THE PEAK OF HIS POWERS’ MAIL ON SUNDAY
* * * *
Jack McEvoy is a reporter with a track record in finding killers. But he’s never been accused of being one himself.
Jack went on one date with Tina Portrero. The next thing he knows, the police are at his house telling Jack he’s a suspect in her murder.
Maybe it’s because he doesn’t like being accused of a crime he didn’t commit. Or maybe it’s because the method of her murder is so chilling that he can’t get it out of his head.
But as he uses his journalistic skills to open doors closed to the police, Jack walks a thin line between suspect and detective – between investigation and obsession – on the trail of a killer who knows his victims better than they know themselves…
Riveting, original and terrifying – this masterpiece from Michael Connelly is the best thriller you will read this summer.

A rare outing for Jack McEvoy but my goodness, he's stumbled on an amazing story . . . mind-boggling
More literary caviar from Connelly.
At the very top of the crime-writing tree
The final hundred pages of this unnerving novel are as exciting as anything Connelly has written.
Excellent and angry...McEvoy is a great character. Connelly writes easy prose and has the best journalists' skill of providing the right information at the right time
Utterly compelling and tinged with loss, this is Connelly at the peak of his powers.
A terrific writer with pace, style, and humanity to spare
