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 paper to 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.

Would you consider the audio edition of The Scarecrow (Excerpt) to be better than the print version?

i have never seen the printed version but I am pretty sure I it is all the same. short and sweet.

What was most disappointing about Michael Connelly’s story?

this was a very short story, I honestly didn't look at the minutes before I purchased this book. I was thinking I was going to get into another Harry Bosch story or something similar to it, but that isn't what this is.

What does Peter Giles bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

emotion.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

N/A

Any additional comments?

None

I'm in agreement w/ so many others, that this does not belong in the library at all. I've began with Audible in 2008, well before Amazon took over. Then, it was a great site, I could trust it and not feel I needed to double check what I was seeing. If this were on TV, it would be a commercial or a teaser. Yes, it says Excerpt, but silly me never thought they'd stoop to this level. Amazon has damaged the value of Audible, and this is an example of how diluted the content has become. It is no wonder they are giving it away. It is useless and should just go into the trash. Sorry, Michael Connelly. You just missed the chance to gain a fan.

BE CAREFUL ... this is a 5 minute snippet,

I started reading one of the Noble Intentions series books, discovering quickly that there must be prequels. Too many references to characters and events the one should be aware of. A couple of quick searches located the Jack Noble books in published sequence. I'm glad I did, and this book, Noble Beginnings, was the first.

Nice book

Why? Where’s the whole book? I’m sure the book in its entirety will be great, but an excerpt is stupid.

Loved the show when it first came out. Still love the show. It is great to enjoy a program without gore, sex and bad language. It is something to watch with the whole family.

Lovely entertainment

I was hooked!! I couldn't put the book down!! I loved how the characters were very well described. I was not expecting that plot twist! If you love a page turner that you can't put down this is the book for you to read.

Great story

Not a book.
This is only a piece of a story that you can’t even delete from your library.
It didn’t make me want to buy the book either.
It made me want to avoid the author’s other titles and cuss Audible, audibly.
