Forced out of the Los Angeles Times amid the latest budget cuts, newspaperman Jack McEvoy decides to go out with a bang, using his final days at the paperto write the definitive murder story of his career.
He focuses on Alonzo Winslow, a 16-year-old drug dealer in jail after confessing to a brutal murder. But as he delves into the story, Jack realizes that Winslow's so-called confession is bogus. The kid might actually be innocent.
Jack is soon running with his biggest story since The Poetmade his career years ago. He is tracking a killer who operates completely below police radar--and with perfect knowledge of any move against him. Including Jack's.
Michael Connelly simply can't write a bad story. I am reading one of his older books right now, City of Bones, and he just writes better with time. The scarecrow will be my next read. (Rosemary Simm 2:36pm October 11, 2009)

I read all of Michael's books and this one sounds awesome. I'd love to have a signed copy for my home library. Thanks. Lorraine [email protected] (Lorraine Larose 8:23pm October 11, 2009)
