    About this audiobook

    From the #1 bestselling author of the Harry Bosch and the Lincoln Lawyer series and who "is the master of the universe in which he lives" (Huffington Post), comes the gripping novel that inspired the film starring Clint Eastwood.

    When Graciella Rivers steps onto his boat, ex-FBI agent Terrell McCaleb has no idea he's about to come out of retirement. He's recuperating from a heart transplant and avoiding anything stressful. But when Graciella tells him the way her sister, Gloria, was murdered, Terry realizes he has no choice. Now the man with the new heart vows to take down a predator without a soul. For Gloria's killer shatters every rule that McCaleb ever learned in his years with the Bureau-as McCaleb gets no more second chances at life...and just one shot at the truth.

    • 5/5
      I loved this story. One of Michael Connollys best.
    • 5/5
      I started with this author because of Bosch. His writing style is captivating and his deep dive into details keeps the story alive and visually real. I listened as an audiobook and I love the reader.
    • 3/5
      I liked the unusual plot although it was a bit long winded for my taste , good ending.
    • 5/5
      This book creates a unique experience by delving into the DNA aspect of a crime.
    • 5/5
      A lot better than expected. Will read more from this author.
    • 5/5
      Well narrated. Got me from the first open and couldn't stop. Far more complex than the film which I saw a few years ago. Which I might watch again.
    • 3/5
      All I can say is.. the plot is worth it. There are some ridiculous moments and the characters behave so irrationaly, but in the end I listend to this for its crime aspect. Connelly is a great writer in terms of consistency.
    • 5/5
      Unputdownable. Excellent storytelling. This seals it, I will now proceed to read everything he has written.
