Description

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Features a new introduction on the origins of the Will Trent novels and Triptych’s place in the series

“Crime fiction at its finest.”—Michael Connelly

From Atlanta’s wealthiest suburbs to its stark inner-city housing projects, a killer has crossed the boundaries of wealth and race. And the people who are chasing him must cross those boundaries, too. Among them is Michael Ormewood, a veteran detective whose marriage is hanging by a thread—and whose arrogance and explosive temper are threatening his career. And Angie Polaski, a beautiful vice cop who was once Michael’ s lover before she became his enemy. But unbeknownst to both of them, another player has entered the game: a loser ex-con who has stumbled upon the killer’s trail in the most coincidental of ways—and who may be the key to breaking the case wide open.

In this gritty, gripping firecracker of a novel, the author of the bestselling Grant County, Georgia, series breaks thrilling new ground, weaving together the threads of a complex, multilayered story with the skill of a master craftsman. Packed with body-bending switchbacks, searing psychological suspense and human emotions, Triptych ratchets up the tension one revelation at a time as it races to a shattering and unforgettable climax.

  • Great story!

    Tryptic The writing style and the way the different character’s stories wove together was really clever. Very refreshing from the standard detective/mystery style. The only issue I had was its gruesomeness. The author describes really hardcore and dark details. It sort of felt dismal (even though the end was very satisfying). I’d recommend people not read this if they have negative reactions to rape/murder/extreme trauma, and kidnapping. I almost stopped reading it because of its harsh tone but the storyline was so brilliantly done. I’ll most likely read the next one
