Michael Connelly - Crime Beat: A Decade of Covering Cops and Killers [Repost]

Before Michael Connelly became a novelist, he was a crime reporter, covering the detectives who worked the homicide beat. In these vivid, hard-hitting pieces, Connelly leads the reader past the yellow police tape as he follows the investigators, the victims, their families and friends–and of, course, the killers–to tell the real stories of murder and its aftermath.
