The messages waiting for Henry Pierce when he plugs in his new telephone clearly aren't intended for him:
" Where is Lilly? This is her number. It's on the site."

Pierce has just been thrown out by his girlfriend and moved into a new apartment, and the company he founded is headed into the most critical phase of fund-raising. He's been "chasing the dime" - doing all it takes to come out first in a technological battle whose victor will make millions. But he can't get the messages for a woman named Lilly out of his head:
"Uh, yes, hello, my name is Frank. I'm at the Peninsula. Room six-twelve. So give me a call when you can."

Something is wrong. Pierce probes, investigates, and then tumbles through a hole, leaving behind a life driven by work to track down and help a woman he has never met.

The world he enters is one of escorts, Web sites, sex, and secret passions. The beautiful Lilly is an object of desire to thousands. To Pierce, she becomes the key that might fix a broken life. But in pursuing Lilly, Pierce has entered a landscape where his success and expertise mean nothing. He is a mark, an outsider, and soon he is also the victim of astonishing violence, the chief suspect in a murder case, and fighting for his life against forces he can barely discern.

This may have been a best-seller in its analog form but that just goes to show how low-brow popular taste can be. It's an okay thriller, Michael Connelly is an decent writer, but don't go here looking for anything substantial.

Unlikely.

Interesting novel. You have to wonder what a high tech CEO is doing chasing a recycled telephone number for a call girl. The reading is very good. Just a enjoyable, not to deep, mystery.

Because I listen to most of my audible books in my car, I had to create places to drive to, including an extra 160-mile round trip for an unplanned family visit, just to continue listening to this fabulous book! Though not much of a scientific-minded person, and definitely NOT into sci-fi, I was fascinated by the possibilities of the future of computers which much of the book prophesies. But the main story, the tragic tale of such ruthless madmen, pitiful women, and a lead character with a heart so caring it gets him into horrible situations, is one which completely captivated me. The writing is great and the reading, some of the best I've ever listened to...and I've listened a lot over the past two years. This is a must hear and justly deserves the 5 stars I've given it.

Where could I drive to next?

I just discovered Michael Connelly. OK, I've been under a rock! His audio books I eat up like candy. There's never a dull moment and the setting in L.A. is so real. What a great writer!

I love Michael Connelly Books!

Great Suspense

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Great storyline. I found Connelly after Lincoln Lawyer movie and have gotten all his books going through them chronologically. This is a departure from the Bosch character and his half brother, however it is an absolutely great listen. Great character development.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No..during several car trips.

Enjoyable listen...excellent story.

I’m a big fan and read every book. I normally give 5 stars, but this one goes beyond exemplary. Highly recommend.

The best book ever!

Overall, I enjoyed the story. The book was referred to me by my nephew, and I was not disappointed. I am usually a "page-turner" and prefer the sound of the rustling pages, but was pleasantly surprised at how I moved through the book so well, and while I worked. Looking forward to my next selection.

Chasing the Dime is classic Connelly. Lots of intricate details, multiple layers of intrigue.

However, Jonathan Davis’ performance makes the complexities work. His nuanced voices, rapid shifts in emotional context are a rare treat for us compulsive listeners!

Jonathan Davis Rocks

Chasing the Dime keeps you wondering what’s going on. And wanting to know. Maybe the lead should have seen it all coming but maybe he is blinded by his drive for success.

One of Connelly’s best
