英文简介:
LAPD detective Renée Ballard and Harry Bosch team up to hunt the brutal killer who is Bosch’s “white whale”–a man responsible for the murder of an entire family.
A year has passed since LAPD detective Renée Ballard quit the force in the face of misogyny, demoralization, and endless red tape.
But after the chief of police himself tells her she can write her own ticket within the department, Ballard takes back her badge, leaving “the Late Show” to rebuild and lead the cold case unit at the elite Robbery-Homicide Division.
For years, Harry Bosch has been working a case that haunts him–the murder of an entire family by a psychopath who still walks free.
Ballard makes Bosch an offer: come volunteer as an investigator in her new Open-Unsolved Unit, and he can pursue his “white whale” with the resources of the LAPD behind him.
First priority for Ballard is to clear the unsolved rape and murder of a sixteen-year-old girl.
The decades-old case is essential to the councilman who supported re-forming the unit, and who could shutter it again–the victim was his sister.
When Ballard gets a “cold hit” connecting the killing to a similar crime, proving that a serial predator has been at work in the city for years, the political pressure has never been higher.
To keep momentum going, she has to pull Bosch off his own investigation, the case that is the consummation of his lifelong mission.
The two must put aside old resentments and new tensions to run to ground not one but two dangerous killers who have operated with brash impunity.
In what may be his most gripping and profoundly moving book yet, Michael Connelly shows once again why he has been dubbed “one of the greatest crime writers of all time” (Ryan Steck, Crimereads).
中文简介:
洛杉矶警察局侦探蕾妮·巴拉德和哈里·博世联手追捕残忍的杀手，也就是博世的“白鲸”——一个对谋杀整个家庭负责的人。
自从洛杉矶警察局侦探蕾妮巴拉德因厌女症、士气低落和无休止的繁文缛节而退出警队以来，已经过去了一年。
但在警察局长本人告诉她她可以在部门内自己写罚单后，巴拉德收回了她的徽章，让“晚间秀”重建并领导精英抢劫凶杀案部门的悬案组。
多年来，Harry Bosch 一直在处理一个困扰他的案件——一个仍然逍遥法外的精神病患者谋杀了整个家庭。
Ballard 向 Bosch 提出了一个提议：作为一名调查员自愿加入她的新开放未解决部门，他可以利用洛杉矶警察局的资源追捕他的“白鲸”。
巴拉德的首要任务是澄清未解决的强奸和谋杀一名 16 岁女孩的案子。
这个几十年前的案子对于支持重组该单位的议员来说至关重要，他可以再次关闭它——受害者是他的妹妹。
当巴拉德将杀戮与类似犯罪联系起来，证明连环掠夺者多年来一直在这座城市工作时，政治压力从未如此之高。
为了保持势头，她必须让博世停止自己的调查，这是他毕生使命的完成。
两人必须抛开旧怨和新紧张，不仅要打击一个人，还要打击两个肆无忌惮、逍遥法外的危险杀手。
在这可能是他迄今为止最扣人心弦、最感人的书中，迈克尔·康纳利再次展示了为什么他被称为“有史以来最伟大的犯罪作家之一”（Ryan Steck，Crimereads）。
