The Late Show

Michael Connelly's pulse-pounding introduction to the dauntless new talent Renée Ballard.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Young LAPD detective Renée Ballard has been relegated to the Late Show after filing a sexual harassment complaint against her supervisor. Working in a twilight world of tragedy and violence, Ballard never gets closure, each morning forced to turn her cases over to the day shift detectives.

But one night she's called out to a brutal assault and then to a multiple murder, and she's determined not to relinquish these cases at dawn.

Working by day while maintaining her shift by night—against orders and her own partner's wishes—Ballard finds herself drawn deep into the dark heart of her city, her department and her past...

‘Connelly has created wonderful characters with Bosch and Haller, and Ballard will easily be as beloved. Connelly is a master of crime fiction.’ - Associated Press
