Honestly I didn't really enjoy the first two Jack McEvoy nearly as much as the Bosch or Lincoln Lawyer books, but I'm a completionist for the most part (trying to wean myself off of that, way too much sunk cost fallacy). Additionally, I'm not a fan generally of serial killer novels, so that can skew my opinion as well.
This just wasn't that great, not up to par with all the other novels Connelly has written. There were quite a few just odd out-of-place or ill-fitting passages. The story seemed strangely patched together and not well thought out. And the serial killer was frankly unbelievable as a real killer.
And is there even ONE good reason at all in the whole world why on earth the killer would go after Jack at the end??? No, there isn't.
