Michael Connelly's crime novels have sold over 80 million copies. Our conversation delved into his craft and his career to understand how he started writing and to what he attributes his continued success. We revealed how his work pays tribute to the noble work of those who seek justice even though they must venture into the darkness – a darkness that constantly threatens to bring them down and hollow them out.

Join us to learn how he puts this all together to delight and provoke his readers.
