1st
February 2017 –
It was announced today that Michael Connelly, Sunday Times bestselling
author of twenty-nine previous novels, including The Wrong Side of Goodbye
and The Crossing, will publish two novels in 2017 including the start of
a new series, with his longtime publisher Orion Publishing Group.
THE LATE SHOW, a new thriller
introducing a driven young detective trying to prove herself in the LAPD, will
publish in the UK in July 2017, and the next installment in the Bosch series
(as-yet-UNTITLED) will publish in Autumn 2017.
Michael Connelly said: ‘I have been
contemplating a new character like Renee Ballard for a long time and now seemed
like the time to write the book. It’s been ten years since I introduced a new
protagonist so I am very excited about this.’
In THE LATE SHOW, 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.Read more about Michael
