Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. 'The Late Show introduces a terrific female character: Detective Rene Ballard . this new star is a beauty . Ballard is complicated and driven enough to sustain the series Connelly doubtless has in mind for her. Connelly writes passionately about, and captures especially well here, the detective's high when the pieces of a puzzle fall into place.' - Janet Maslin, New York TimesLos Angeles can be a dangerous city - never more so than in the dead of night. Renee Ballard works the night shift at the LAPD 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. 'Connelly has created wonderful characters with Bosch and Haller, and Ballard will easily be as beloved. Connelly is a master of crime fiction.' - Associated Press Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781760633462
