The Poet by Michael Connelly
With his four Harry Bosch novels, Michael Connelly joined the top rank of a new generation of crime writers (Los Angeles Times). Now Connelly returns with his most searing thriller yet a major new departure that recalls the best work of Thomas Harris (Red Dragon, Silence of the Lambs) and James Patterson (Along Came a Spider).
Our hero is Jack McEvoy, a Rocky Mountain News crime-beat reporter. As the novel opens, Jack's twin brother, a Denver homicide detective, has just killed himself. Or so it seems. But when Jack begins to investigate the phenomenon of police suicides, a disturbing pattern emerges, and soon suspects that a serial murderer is at work a devious cop killer who's left a coast-to-coast trail of suicide notes drawn from the poems of Edgar Allan Poe. It's the story of a lifetime except that the Poet already seems to know that Jack is trailing him.
Here is definitive proof that Michael Connelly is among the best suspense novelist working today.
