Former FBI agent Rachel Walling is working a dead-end stint in South Dakota when she gets the call she's been dreading for four years. The Poet is back. And he has not forgotten Rachel. He has a special present for her. Harry Bosch is adjusting to life in Las Vegas as a private investigator and a new father. He gets a call, too, from the widow of a friend who died recently. Previously in his FBI career, the friend worked on the famous case tracking the killer known as the Poet. This fact alone makes some of the elements of his death doubly suspicious. And Harry Bosch is heading straight into the path of the most ruthless and inventive murderer he has ever encountered . . .

    This is one of Michael Connelly's most detailed and intriguing detective novel. From the start the reader is drawn into a cleverly planned plot that engages the mind as well as the heart. For those who like something to chew on, to get their teeth into as it were, this is the book. The plot is built up with consummate skill. No detail is neglected. The murders are horrific but Connelly doesn't dwell on them. He is mainly concerned to present Bosch as a man - a private detective, no longer in the LAPD - who searches out every detail he can to enable him to move the case forward. The story includes some great characters, and Bosch deals with them in his own inimitable way. A great story - one full of emotion and excitement!
