PRE-ORDER THE NEW THRILLER FROM MILLION COPY SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER MICHAEL CONNELLY

****

Santa Catalina, California. Where sun, sea, and sand hide dark secrets …

When Detective Stilwell receives a confidential tip about a major drug deal at a remote mountain airstrip, the operation ends in tragedy, with officers down and an unidentified shooter trying to escape the island.

Suspended pending investigation, Stilwell kills time sorting the station’s lost and found. There, he finds a backpack returned two months ago – belonging to a hiker missing for four years.

Solving the mystery will reach further than anyone imagines – and engage a killer starting a deadly game of cat-and-mouse…

From the author behind Amazon Prime #1 series Bosch and Ballard, and Netflix #1 The Lincoln Lawyer, comes a brand-new masterpiece.
