Samenvatting



The high-profile case of Jason Jessup, a convicted child-killer, is an intriguing one - particularly since the DA's determination to re-charge and re-try him for the same crime seems doomed to failure. But as as new trial date is set, it starts to look like Mickey Haller has been set up, with the renewed prosecution merely a tactic to prevent Jessup from successfully suing the state for millions of dollars. Mickey and his lead investigator, Harry Bosch, are going to have to find the truth about what really happened...



When Mickey Haller is invited by the Los Angeles County District Attorney to prosecute a case for him, he knows something strange is going on. Mickey's a defence lawyer, one of the best in the business, and to switch sides like this would be akin to asking a fox to guard the hen-house. But the high-profile case of Jason Jessup, a convicted child-killer who spent almost 25 years on death row before DNA evidence freed him, is an intriguing one...

Eager for the publicity and drawn to the challenge, Mickey takes the case, with Detective Harry Bosch on board as his lead investigator. But as a new trial date is set, it starts to look like he's been set up. Mickey and Harry are going to have to dig deep into the past and find the truth about what really happened to the victim all those years ago.

  • Confused thriller

    Harry Bosch (HB) begins this investigation just four months after he lost his ex-wife in Hong Kong. He returned to the US with their daughter, who is successfully integrating in a high school in LA, while living with HB.
    This book is a legal thriller and a police procedural, investigating an case of 24 years ago when a 12-year old girl was strangled. The killer was convicted on the basis of hairs found in his truck, traces of sperm on her dress and a 13-year old witness, the victim’s older sister. But new DNA techniques show that the long-dead stepfather of the girls is the source of the sperm. Whereupon the killer is released, but immediately rearrested to be tried again.
    Bosch joins a team composed of his newly-discovered half brother Mickey Haller and Maggie McPherson, Mickey’s no.1 ex-wife, mother of his only daughter, a very competent public prosecutor. An A-team, except that Mickey was tempted/forced somehow to be the prosecutor in this case, with his ex-wife as his assistant and his half-brother HB as his investigator. Conflicts and irritations are pre-programmed.
    This book is quite addictive and readable, but it ends with lots of loose ends. MC simply had too many objectives. The main failure in this book concerns the inconsistent portrayal of the bad guy.
