Synopses & Reviews
Cassie Black is lured back to a profession she'd left behind robbing casino gamblers of their winnings by a setup that looks too good to pass up. Her work goes as planned, except that the mark has too much money so much that someone very powerful must now be very angry. Cassie soon finds herself running from gunmen who somehow know her every move in advance. They also seem to be closing in on Cassie's most closely guarded secret, the one thing that could have caused her to return to crime and the one thing she will do anything to protect.
Written with the fiery pace and brilliant plotting that have made bestsellers of Angels Flight and Blood Work, and featuring one of the strongest heroines to come along in years, Void Moonis Michael Connelly's most original and surprising novel yet.
Review
"Flawlessly combining the grim existentialism of Richard Stark with the measured pathos of Jane Hamilton, this riveting crime caper... proves that Connelly is one of our premier suspense writers." Charles Winecoff, Entertainment Weekly
Review
"Void Moon may be Connelly's masterpiece to date, and it can be recommended for a dozen reasons. Basically, though, it's just a terrific read, one you won't be able to put down." Chicago Tribune
Synopsis
New York Times bestselling author Michael Connelly writes novels of brilliantly original suspense. In this electrifying tour de force, he takes us into a world of extremes: too much criminality, too much money, and too many ways to die.
In L.A. Cassie Black is another beautiful woman in a Porsche: except Cassie just did six years in prison and still has "outlaw juice" flowing in her veins. Now Cassie is returning to her old profession, taking down a money man in Vegas. But the perfect heist goes very wrong, and suddenly Cassie is on the run--with a near-psychotic Vegas "fixer" killing everyone who knew about the job. Between Cassie and the man hunting her are a few last secrets: like who really set up the job, why Cassie had to take the change, and how, in the end, it might all be a matter of the moon...
