NIGHTSHADE Is Out Now In The USA, Canada, The UK, Ireland, Australia, & New Zealand!

Nightshade by Michael Connelly

Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Detective Stilwell has been “exiled” to a low-key post policing rustic Catalina Island, after department politics drove him off a homicide desk on the mainland. But while following up the usual drunk-and-disorderlies and petty thefts that come with his new territory, Detective Stilwell gets a report of a body found weighed down at the bottom of the harbor—a Jane Doe identifiable at first only by a streak of purple dye in her hair. At the same time, a report of poaching on a protected reserve turns into a case fraught with violence and danger as Stilwell digs into the shady past of an island bigwig.

The NIGHTSHADE Book Tour Has Been Canceled

I am very sorry to share that Michael had to cancel his May (USA) and June (England) book tours for NIGHTSHADE. An unforeseen medical procedure has been scheduled, prohibiting touring and traveling. Doctors’ orders. It is a huge disappointment, but the plan is to try and schedule an event with these same booksellers in October when the next book comes out. If you bought a ticket to an event, the host store will be reaching out to you with an update, or you can reach out to the store directly yourself. Thank you for your understanding and your patience.

A NOTE FROM MICHAEL CONNELLY:
I am so sorry for this late notice but I need to postpone my book tour for NIGHTSHADE. I am dealing with a medical issue that needs immediate attention and aftercare, and I am not going to be able to make the appearances that were scheduled and I was so looking forward to. I love this book and the new character I have created, and wanted to get out there to talk about it. I love being on the road, visiting in bookstores and meeting readers who have long supported my work. It means so much to me. I’ve been doing it since 1992, but health issues caught up with me this time. Please know that this is only a pause. I’ll get past this and get back out there in the fall. Thank you for understanding. See you then. – Michael

NIGHTSHADE Review: Best Books Of May & Must Listen

Apple Books Staff Favorites For May - NIGHTSHADE

“Michael Connelly always brings heart and wit to his best-selling police procedurals, and this first outing for Stilwell is no exception, introducing a smart, determined, and highly moral protagonist with a case designed to push all his buttons. As Stilwell methodically works his way through the case, Connelly not only gives us the thrilling step-by-step of investigative work but also mines the tensions of a complicated job—and the struggle to prove oneself in a hostile environment.” — Apple Books, Best Books of May Staff Pick & Must Listen Audiobook Staff Pick
