Riassunto

A young woman finds herself caught up in a scam which may cost her the one thing she values more than her life...

Cassie Black has been lured back to the criminal profession she gave up - robbing gamblers of their winnings - by a proposition that is just too good to miss. The job goes as planned, except that the target has too much money. It can only mean someone very powerful is going to be very angry indeed.

Cassie finds herself on the run from a killer who seems to know her every move in advance. Worse still, he is closing in on the one thing Cassie will do anything to protect.

Su questo libro

Recensione:

A brilliantly controlled narrative ... Connelly has two great skills. One is the creation of characters who live and breathe, so that we care about them far more than we do for the cardboard figures stamped out by most thriller writers. His second skill is a mastery of pace. His books are page-turners, and the author is in sublime control of the speed at which we turn those pages. With Void Moon I found myself turning very fast indeed (MAIL ON SUNDAY)

This is pulse-quickening stuff from a writer who remains ingeniously and grimly satisfying (ARENA)

Destined for bestsellerdom ... This is a gem of a book that breaks Connelly's fractured male hero mould and introduces a feisty female crimininal, Cassie Black ... You'll quickly be rooting for the hapless con artist as the plot moves in the most unlikely directions at a pace that never flags. This is Connelly at his very best, and you can't say better than that (GUARDIAN)

Connelly is a crime-writing genius. His Harry Bosch stories are genuine modern classics, and this one's in the same league ... Unmissable (INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY)

A wonderfully pacy and intelligent thriller (TIME OUT)

VOID MOON is Michael Connelly at his best, and that is the very best where thriller writing is concerned (IRISH TIMES)

This is thriller writing of the highest quality, brilliantly paced and impossible to put down (MAIL ON SUNDAY)

Descrizione del libro:

A brilliant, high-tension thriller set in the glittery, surreal world of Las Vegas, from the bestselling author of THE LINCOLN LAWYER.
