About this listen

Henry Pierce has a whole new life - new apartment, new telephone, new telephone number. But the first time he checks his messages, he discovers that someone had the number before him. The messages on his line are for a woman named Lilly, and she is in some kind of serious trouble.

Pierce is inexorably drawn into Lilly's world, and it's unlike any world he's ever known. It is a night-time world of escort services, websites, sex, and secret identities. Pierce tumbles through a hole, abandoning his orderly life in a frantic race to save the life of a woman he has never met.

Pierce's skills as a computer entrepreneur allow him to trace Lilly's last days with some precision. But every step into Lilly's past takes him deeper into a web of inescapable intricacy - and a decision that could cost him everything he owns and holds dear.

As good as it gets just felt it was a bit predictable But worth the read

Entertaining

Having just finished listening Void Moon, I was a bit sceptical what this book would entail. But it actually wasn't too bad. It did start rather slowly but it got exciting towards the end, and there were a few surprises on route. Worth listening.

A bit better

Well written but poor idea. Maybe it's good if you can empathise with a computer geek who is the main character

Hard work

I did struggle to finish this and did not really enjoy the denouement which I found disappointing. However I am a great fan of Michael Connelly and am already looking forward to reading my next one!

Not one of his best...

I've read or listened to nearly all Michael Connelly's books and I've really enjoyed them. This one, though, is very disappointing. The plot is confused, the characters are weak, and the ending is just plain silly. Deus ex machina.
