When the missing persons case turns into a hunt for a killer who has been stalking victims in Los Angeles, Cole and Pike find themselves battling both a hostile police department and a madman.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“One of the best crime novels I’ve ever read.” —David Baldacci, #1 New York Times bestselling author
“What starts as a routine search for a rich man’s pampered daughter becomes a tense face-off with a killer and a serious examination of the limits of friendship.” —New York Times Book Review
“A milestone in the career of a very fine writer and a must-read for contemporary hardboiled fans.” —Washington Post
“As the complicated plot unfolds, there are surprises and setbacks for all the characters, as well as many moving moments as the friendship between Joe and Elvis is put to the ultimate test. And behind it all stands the city of Los Angeles, populated with the best and worst humanity has to offer and served and protected by a police force that also mirrors the best and worst in human nature.” —Denver Post
“Easily the most ambitious in an outstanding series…This is an extraordinary crime novel that should not be pigeonholed by genre. The best books always land outside preset boundaries. A wonderful experience.” —Booklist (starred review)
