Michael Connelly

Join Michael Connelly in an online conversation about DESERT STAR with his longtime editor. They’ll be having a deep-dive discussion about the writing and editing of the book, the character developments and plot twists, answering questions from readers, and talking about what comes next. Those who join will also receive, via email, behind-the-scenes photos, videos, and links to add to the reading experience. This live online Crowdcast event will begin at 8pm ET/5pm PT on Tuesday, December 6, 2022–one month after the book’s release. It is free and open to anyone who wants to read the book and join.

We’ve just added many wonderful indie booksellers to our list. You can pre-order a signed copy of DESERT STAR from one of them and have it shipped in November when the book is released. More stores, including some UK & Canada stores, will be added soon.

Season 2 will use The Fifth Witness (2011) as the main source material and will be 10 episodes long. The show will return in 2023.

Sidelined after an accident, hotshot Los Angeles lawyer Mickey Haller restarts his career – and his trademark Lincoln – when he takes over the law practice of a murdered defense attorney.

The first season has 10 episodes and is based on The Brass Verdict.
