  • "His career derailed by the vengeful Curtlee family for his part in convicting one of their number for murder, former homicide detective Abe Glitsky learns that the killer has won a retrial at the same time a star witness has been murdered."
  • "Niemand steht über dem Gesetz Vor zehn Jahren wurde Robert Curtlee wegen mehrfacher Vergewaltigung und Mord zu lebenslanger Haft verurteilt. Bis heute beteuert er seine Unschuld, und seine einflussreichen Eltern lassen den Fall neu aufrollen. Sobald Robert gegen Kaution auf freiem Fuss ist, sterben die ersten Zeugen. Doch dem Hauptverdächtigen ist nichts nachzuweisen. Abe Glitsky und der Staatsanwalt Wes Farrell müssen alle Hebel in Bewegung setzen, um den Angeklagten seiner gerechten Strafe zuzuführen. John Lescroart begann schon während seines Studiums in Berkeley mit dem Schreiben, entschied dann aber Rockmusiker zu werden und tourte mit seiner Band u.a. durch Europa. Nach einer schweren Krankheit und elf Tagen im Koma beschloss er, es noch ein letztes Mal mit einem Roman zu versuchen und eroberte mit seinem ersten Justizthriller auf Anhieb die US-Bestsellerlisten. Heute lebt er als freier Schriftsteller in Davis, Kalifornien. Seine Bücher sind internationale Erfolge."
  • "The Curtlees are a powerful force in San Francisco, unscrupulous billionaires who've lined every important pocket in the Bay Area in pursuit of their own ascent. So when the family's heir, Ro Curtlee, was convicted of rape and murder a decade ago, the fallout for those who helped to bring him to justice was swift and uncompromising. The jury foreman was fired from his job and blacklisted in his industry. The lead prosecutor was pushed off the fast track, her dreams of becoming DA dashed. And head homicide detective Abe Glitsky was reassigned to the police department's payroll office. Eventually, all three were able to rebuild their lives. And then Ro Curtlee's lawyers won him a retrial, and he was released from jail. Within 24 hours, a fire destroys the home of the original trial's star witness, her abused remains discovered in the ruins. When a second fire claims a participant in the case, Abe is convinced: Ro is out for revenge. But with no hard evidence and an on-the-take media eager to vilify anyone who challenges Ro, can Abe stop the violence before he finds himself in its crosshairs? How much more can he sacrifice to put Ro back behind bars?"
  • "Het hoofd van de afdeling Moordzaken van de politie in San Francisco moet een moord oplossen die als twee druppels water lijkt op een moord waarvoor iemand is veroordeeld die inmiddels weer op vrije voeten is."
  • "From New York Times bestseller John Lescroart comes an explosive look at the seductive power of revenge and the terrible costs of justice. The Curtlees are the most powerful family in San Francisco, unscrupulous billionaires who ve lined every important pocket in the Bay Area in pursuit of their own ascent. So when the family's heir, Ro Curtlee, was convicted of rape and murder a decade ago, the fallout for those who helped to bring him to justice was swift and uncompromising. The jury foreman was fired from his job and blacklisted in his industry. The lead prosecutor was pushed off the fast track, her dreams of becoming DA dashed. And head homicide detective Abe Glitsky was reassigned to the police department s payroll office. Eventually, all three were able to rebuild their fragile, damaged lives. And then Ro Curtlee's lawyers won him a retrial, and he was released from jail. Within twenty-four hours, a fire destroys the home of the original trial's star witness, her abused remains discovered in the ruins. When a second fire claims a participant in the case, Abe is convinced: Ro is out for revenge. But with no hard evidence and an on-the-take media eager to vilify anyone who challenges Ro, can Abe stop the violence before he finds himself in its crosshairs? How much more can he sacrifice to put Ro back behind bars? And just how far across the line is he prepared to go in pursuit of justice?"

  • "When wild boy Ro Curtlee was convicted of rape and murder, the fallout against those responsible for putting him behind bars-including detective Abe Glitsky-was uncompromising. That's because the Curtlee family is among the Bay Area's most powerful billionaires. When a retrial ends in Ro's release, it appears his need for retribution isn't over. And this time, Glitsky's in the crosshairs."@en
