Fair Warning, Michael Connelly

Fair Warning opening lines: She liked his car. It as the first time she had been in an electric. All she could hear was the wind as they cut through the night.

My blurb:

One date, one murder and two desperate cops trying to solve a crime. That is all that ties Jack to Tina. But can he prove his innocence when the cops don’t want to look at the patterns he sees. And will his journalistic skills be what undoes him, or saves him?

Fair Warning

Jack McEvoy is a reporter with a track record in finding killers. But he’s never been accused of being one himself.

Jack went on one date with Tina Portrero. The next thing he knows, the police are at his house telling Jack he’s a suspect in her murder.

Maybe it’s because he doesn’t like being accused of a crime he didn’t commit. Or maybe it’s because the method of her murder is so chilling that he can’t get it out of his head.

But as he uses his journalistic skills to open doors closed to the police, Jack walks a thin line between suspect and detective – between investigation and obsession – on the trail of a killer who knows his victims better than they know themselves…

My verdict:

What a chilling reminder that nothing we put on the internet is safe. Michael Connelly is a fantastic author and this is another one of his novels I can recommend you go out and buy.
