About this listen
A compelling thriller introducing a driven young detective trying to prove herself in the LAPD.
Renée Ballard works the night shift in Hollywood, beginning many investigations but finishing none as each morning she turns her cases over to day shift detectives. A once up-and-coming detective, she's been given this beat as punishment after filing a sexual harassment complaint against a supervisor. But one night she catches two cases she doesn't want to part with: the brutal beating of a prostitute left for dead in a parking lot and the killing of a young woman in a nightclub shooting.
Ballard is determined not to give up at dawn. Against orders and her own partner's wishes, she works both cases by day while maintaining her shift by night. As the cases entwine, they pull her closer to her own demons and the reason she won't give up her job - no matter what the department throws at her.

Good book, boring narrator
Die Sprecherin ist leider zum einschlafen, aber das Buch und die neue Hauptcharakterin machen Spaß

Great new character and story line
I read the various reviews before I purchased the book with some reservation. However, that was unfounded and the story was great with several cases in one book. The narrator was great, suits the female character. Highly recommended.

Terrific!
Great story, addictive listening. Best narration I’ve ever heard, Katherine is a master voice artist, all depictions sound natural. Highly recommended.

Classic Conelly
A gritty new LAPD charactor with interesting baggage and work relationships - plenty of scope for further developments. Will she cross paths with Harry Bosch ?

A new detective
Renee Ballard is the new detective on the block. She is tough, vulnerable, misunderstood and stubborn.....sometimes to her own detriment. I liked this book and will listen to the next one as her character develops through the series. I have not given the book 5 stars as I do think some more character development is necessary to reach the usual Connelly heights. Nevertheless it was an enjoyable listen with an interesting story.
