Forced out of the Los Angeles Times amid the latest budget cuts, newspaperman Jack McEvoy decides to go out with a bang, using his final days at the paperto write the definitive murder story of his career.

He focuses on Alonzo Winslow, a 16-year-old drug dealer in jail after confessing to a brutal murder. But as he delves into the story, Jack realizes that Winslow's so-called confession is bogus. The kid might actually be innocent.

Jack is soon running with his biggest story since The Poetmade his career years ago. He is tracking a killer who operates completely below police radar--and with perfect knowledge of any move against him. Including Jack's........

I feel duped! A book editor from the NYTimes called this the beach read thriller of the season, yet the concept is so tired; old-time reporter with an ex-lover who is an FBI agent rekindles his relationship with said agent to bring down a serial killer. The serial killer's sexual deviances are almost laughable. Connelly tried to pick the most obscure fetish he could find and if you actually make it through to the end of the book as I forced myself to do, you will be annoyed at yourself for wasti......

I was about to write a lengthy description of my utter disappointment with Connelly's latest novel "The Scarecrow" when I came across one by another reviewer entitled "Predictable with huge plot holes and poorly drawn characters". Read it. It says everything I wanted to. What's up with you Michael? Have you signed one of those one book every year contracts?


......

Authors as prolific as Connelly invariably stumble and produce at least one dog and/or begin to fade and write novels that pale in comparison to their earlier work. Such is not the case (yet) with Connelly. "The Scarecrow" is truly a page turner that is saturated with relevancy---cyberspace malfeasance and the decline of the paper and ink newspaper. Thank goodness, Connelly is still on his game, and I'm already looking forward to reading his next novel, "Nine Dragons".
......

If you want to know what Michael Connelly was like at his best -- which was superb -- read "The Concrete Blonde" and "The Black Ice." Unfortunately, his plot writing skills, narrative fluidity and (especially) depth of characterization have all steadily eroded in direct proportion to his ever increasing and speedier release of new "product." For example, FBI Agent Rachel Walling seemingly returns only to provide a means for Connelly to provide an exposition about the internet and hacking. Most ......

I have read a majority of the works by Michael Connelly and have never been disappointed. Even though the Scarecrow did not feature the long-time favorite character, Harry Bosch, I was confident of Connelly's ability to provide me with an entertaining, suspenseful murder mystery. He did not let me down. This was a great read - completely captivating and nearly impossible to put down. Connelly pulls the story forward with strong character development, with the reader drawn into a range of emo......

Glenn Beck's Common Sense: The Case Against an Out-of-Control Government, Inspired by Thomas Paine

"If you believe it's time to put principles above parties, character above campaign promises, and Common Sense above all -- then I ask you to read this book...."

In any era, great Americans inspire us to reach our full potential. They know with conviction what they believe within themselves. They understand that all actions have consequences. And they find commonsense solutions to the nation's problems.

One such American, Thomas Paine, was an ordinary man who changed the course of history by penning Common Sense, the concise 1776 masterpiece in which, through extraordinarily straightforward and indisputable arguments, he encouraged his fellow citizens to take control of America's future -- and, ultimately, her freedom.

Nearly two and a half centuries later, those very freedoms once again hang in the balance. And now, Glenn Beck revisits Paine's powerful treatise with one purpose: to galvanize Americans to see past government's easy solutions, two-part monopoly, and illogical methods and take back our great country........

The latest media nugget from author, TV, radio and stage star Glenn Beck is easy to recommend, but with a caveat or two. First of all, if you listen to his radio program or watch his Fox News show, you've probably already got an idea of his shtick. He's an extremely likeable, self-deprecating goofball who has no pretentions to ivory-tower intellectualism. Behind his overtly entertaining persona, however, is a guy who might be one of the biggest doom-and-gloomers when it comes to his vision of th......

Glenn Beck has written an enlightening tome asking for the people to hold our elected officials responsible for their actions. Mr. Beck is not a raving lunatic - although he plays one on the radio - but a funny, sarcastic voice crying out to the masses.

Read this book, Mr. Beck tells us on his radio show, and then pass it onto others.
......

Beck seems sincere and well-intentioned. He is neither a party hack nor _only_ out for a buck. The wildly out-of-proportion success of this book testifies to the disenfranchisement felt by many Americans that Beck refers to so often. As an author, or co-author, he may be passionate, but his effort is weak. I don't see the connection between his part of the volume and Paines'.
......

This is a good book at a great time. Both our parties have failed us on almost all areas it was put in place to protect us from and its time we reclaim what goverment should be. I hope this books and others makes a impact on the 2010 election's and we hold these goverment leaders accountable and fire most of them in 2010.

this book should be made into a tv special shown ad nauseum until every american has seen it and wises up the rocket scientists on the potomac-(politicians)

If you like filling your head with misguided... well BS just for sake creating an opinion into something even remotely factual then by all means read this. Would have popped less brain cells reading Anne Culturgiest.
......

I haven't read the book. I've heard Beck talking about it. He certainly has the right to make money from his endeavors. However, if he just wanted to sound the alarm, he should've published it as a .PDF so everyone could read it instantly. Of course, free things are often thought to have no value, but it's a way to get out the word immediately. It isn't too late. Publish the whole thing for free, then offer people a chance to buy it.

Amazing... Not a political hackjob. It is an open look at the corruption of the entire governmental process. I have passed it on to 10 friends that are apathetic and clueless. Hopefully it will open their eyes as it opened mine.

I just want to thank all the intellectually lazy people who posted their 1-star reviews not having read the book, talking about the book as if it's a "right-wing hack job" and such, it provided quite a bit of entertainment for me. I HAVE read the book and I'll tell you right now that it is 100% bash both sides, and it is 100% common sense. Saying that one disagree with what is in this book is impossible to defend, unless he/she supports the progressive agenda that started with Woodrow Wilson (......

First off, if you are one of these Glen Beck 9-12 whackos, you won't be reading the rest of this review anyway so, off with you.

For anyone that's actually considering buying this item, realize that the man who wrote it is paid to lie and twist the truth on TV. He's not a journalist and not some sort of professor to be followed. He's a d-bag with a microphone and this comes through in his "book". If you really want to hear what he has to say just Google glen beck. Its free and you'll ......

These are a joke, fall apart at first wash (the tag tells buyer to wash before use) Our strawberry fell right off. its a hassle to return. I am sticking to brands I know from now on!

I bought these shoes for my niece who can not walk yet and they are perfect!! They are so adorable and a great price!
......

These shoes are too slippery, not wearable at all. There are many small dots on the sole, supposed to be the "non-skid" mechanism, but are made of plastic instead of rubber. Think of putting a hard plastic bowl on your floor and let it slide. My daughter is 11 months old, she can walk in Robeez, but can't even stand in these shoes. Also the opening is too small and made bruises on my daughter's ankles(I guess the manufacture wants to save 0.2 inch of elastic band for each shoe). I know these sho......
