About this title: This 10th Harry Bosch novel links the retired LA cop with characters from previous non-Bosch novels. A serial killer and ex-FBI agent named Robert Backus, the title character from Michael Connelly's first novel, THE POET, was commonly thought to be dead. But now the Poet has resurfaced and has started killing again. At risk is FBI agent Rachel Walling, a former protégé of Backus who subsequently investigated his first killing spree.

"I really liked The Poet, and I like Harry Bosch and was excited to see Rachel again - but ultimately, this book was kinda disappointing. First of all, I thought Jack would be in it. Second of all, the end was kind of...abrupt. That said, it was still a pageturner and worth reading."
"This story involves Rachel Walling, Harry Bosch, and Terry McCaleb. Of course, Terry has just died, and Harry is investigating the death. The Poet, an ex-FBI agent, Bob Backus, turned serial killer is the event that brings Rachel and Harry together. The action centers in Vegas and LA. Harry's ex-wife and newly discovered daughter are in Vegas, as is the remains of 9 men killed by the Poet. I thoroughly enjoy reading about Harry, "everyone matters or nobody matters". I have now completed reading the whole Connelly library, and eagerly await The Nine Dragons. Of course, my favorite is Harry Bosch."
"This book kept my interest, but it was not my favorite kind of mystery. From the beginning we knew "who did it," and the book consisted of just the chase. I prefer the plot to be the investigator's analysis of clues in order to determine "Who done it?""
