Summary
When his homicide detective brother suddenly kills himself, Jack McEvoy--crime reporter for the 'Denver Post'--undertakes an investigative report into police suicides, only to uncover a sinister pattern that leads to a devious serial cop killer called 'The Poet.'
Amazon.com description: Product Description: With his four Harry Bosch novels, Michael Connelly joined "the top rank of a new generation of crime writers" (Los Angeles Times). Connelly returns with his most searing thriller yet - a major 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 novelists working today.
