Description

The hero of The Poet and The Scarecrow is back in this thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author Michael Connelly. Jack McEvoy, the journalist who never backs down, tracks a serial killer who has been operating completely under the radar—until now. 

Veteran reporter Jack McEvoy has taken down killers before, but when a woman he had a one-night stand with is murdered in a particularly brutal way, McEvoy realizes he might be facing a criminal mind unlike any he's ever encountered.

Jack investigates—against the warnings of the police and his own editor—and makes a shocking discovery that connects the crime to other mysterious deaths across the country. Undetected by law enforcement, a vicious killer has been hunting women, using genetic data to select and stalk his targets.

Uncovering the murkiest corners of the dark web, Jack races to find and protect the last source who can lead him to his quarry. But the killer has already chosen his next target, and he's ready to strike.

Terrifying and unputdownable, Fair Warning shows once again why "Michael Connelly has earned his place in the pantheon of great crime fiction writers" (Chicago Sun-Times).

    I just couldn’t get into this. Read about 80 pages and then forwarded to the last 20. Predictable. This author has written much better books

    I read many books and this one stepped beyond the typical. Good story, proven characters and topics relevant to our real world. I rarely give a 5. Peace

    I enjoyed this book. Quite different from MC’s other work in the Bosch series and it’s spin off’s.

    Good plot with credible actors. Killer could have been more devious and more prominent in the story.

    This was a good murder mystery and a page turner. It seemed less convincing than some other Connelly books. It’d be 3&1/2 really and improbable.
  • Great book
