DESCRIPTION:
Until the end R. Jubitz It's rare to not know how a Connelly story will end - this one kept me going right to the ending I didn't expect. The writing was light but the story kept me involved.. The Cassie Black Character Didn't Cut It For me, it took nearly 100 pages for the story to start, and I kept losing track because of all the technological and physical activity descriptions. Finally, I began skimming over those parts. My husband and I are AVID Michael Connelly fans, and love the Harry Bosch and Mickey Haller books, all of which we own or are accumulating in hardcover for our considerable library. Once we start reading one of them we can't put it down, but I only finished this book because I was determined to do so; it just wasn't up to parand you don't know how it pains me to say that. It didn't even occur to us that Michael Connelly could write a dudbut maybe I . Picking up some skipped Connelly Robo I skipped over this book in my initial reading of Bosch. I enjoyed the story but found it a bit slow in parts. Interesting juxtapositions of synchronicity, fate, karma, and doing the right thing.
But the perfect heist goes very wrong, and suddenly Cassie is on the run--with a near-psychotic Vegas "fixer" killing everyone who knew about the job. Cassie Black is another beautiful woman in a Porsche: except Cassie just did six years in prison and still has "outlaw juice" flowing in her veins. In this electrifying tour de force, he takes us into a world of extremes: too much criminality, too much money, and too many ways to die. Between Cassie and the man hunting her are a few last secrets: like who really set up the job, why Cassie had to take the change, and how, in the end, it might all be a matter of the moon. Now Cassie is returning to her old profession, taking down a money man in Vegas. In L.A. New York Times bestselling author Michael Connelly writes novels of brilliantly original suspense
There seems to be an unspoken rule among mystery writers that once the author has created a successful character, the obligation to fans demands regular installments in the hero's life history, whatever the author's literary aspirations. The novel displays Connelly's stunning ability to breathe reality into his fiction with the subtle details that can only come from careful research and his years of experience reporting on crime for the L.A. Michael Connelly's police procedural series featuring Harry Bosch has garnered numerous top mystery awards, including the coveted Edgar. But, strangely, it is his deviations from Bosch, including The Poet and Blood Work, that have drawn the biggest readerships--and have won awards of their own to boot (The Poet was honored with the 1997 Anthony Award).
