The #1 New York Times bestselling author of the phenomenally successful Harry Bosch series as well as the winner of every major crime award, Michael Connelly is one of, if not the most, popular writers of crime fiction working today. After three years as a crime reporter for the Los Angeles Times, Connelly decided to try writing fiction. The result was the award-winning, The Black Echo, introducing LAPD Detective Hieronymous Bosch. Connelly’s 16th novel, The Lincoln Lawyer, was his first legal thriller and debuted at #1 on the New York Times list. The book introduced Mickey Haller, an L.A. defense attorney and half-brother of Bosch. The Brass Verdict is Connelly’s brand new novel, teaming Haller and Bosch as they try to thwart a killer on the loose. The result is a book of riveting suspense featuring two spectacular anti-heroes.

The Brass Verdict: When Harry (Bosch) met Mickey (Haller). The author writes, "It all began with a story an attorney told me about a murder case in which the victim was a lawyer. Another attorney was brought in by the courts to take over the dead man’s practice. Problem was, the new attorney realized ... (more)that one of the clients he inherited could be the killer.
