"Heat 2 is a brilliant and riveting novel with rich and real characters and powerhouse storytelling that represents one of the most authentic evocations of criminals and the cops who hunt them down that I've ever read. The first novel from Michael Mann (and Meg Gardiner) is a tour de force that works as a standalone but also honors, deepens, and expands Mann's iconic film by placing all the key characters in an intricately detailed and emotionally involving new story that takes place before and after Heat." -- Don Winslow "As in The Godfather, Part Two, Mann and Gardiner's riveting thriller functions as both a prequel and a sequel. . . . The best thing about this innovative tale is the way the fully fleshed human stories support and even transcend the often-breathtaking action." -- Booklist [starred review], "Heat 2 is a brilliant and riveting novel with rich and real characters and powerhouse storytelling that represents one of the most authentic evocations of criminals and the cops who hunt them down that I've ever read.

Michael Mann and Meg Gardiner's Heat 2 is now one of my favorite suspense novels. The voice of this book is a brilliant melding of the way we talk and the way we think. I must confess I did put the novel down occasionally, but only because I didn't want it to end. I'm already quoting lines from Heat 2 to my writer friends (shamelessly saying the lines are mine)." -- James Patterson "Prepare for an epic journey. . . . The world of international drug cartels and crime syndicates has never been so gripping. . . . Heat was a cinematic spectacle, and this sequel manages to create the same immersive experience in written form. . . . Gardiner and Mann are legends, and this book will be the best seller that leads the cry for a film version." -- Library Journal (starred review) "Propulsive." -- Sam Sifton, New York Times "Heat 2 gives us an exciting, emotionally rich thriller, with just as much style and panache as Michael Mann's original classic heist movie. I loved it." -- Adrian McKinty, #1 international bestselling author "Awesome! This novel is a stunning achievement in character study, narrative form and action. I am in awe. A stunning page-turner every bit as masterful as the original movie. Easily one of the finest novels of the year!" -- Steve Cavanagh, #1 international bestselling author "This audacious, powerhouse of a novel brings to the page everything the classic crime film Heat brought to the screen. . . Drawn by Mann and Gardiner with psychological and emotional gravity, the characters live their lives of crime and violence on the edge of a razor. The plot and the set-pieces of shootouts, heists, and crime-scene investigation are nails. The characters' motives are obsessive. The details of police work and criminal enterprise, precise and revealing. The banter is quick and smart and memorable. And the metaphors and descriptions conjure up vivid, original images worthy of Mann's best big movies." -- Eric Rickstad, New York Times bestselling author, "Heat 2 is a brilliant and riveting novel with rich and real characters and powerhouse storytelling that represents one of the most authentic evocations of criminals and the cops who hunt them down that I've ever read.

It is also a moving meditation on commitment--the rewards and the costs of giving your all. Michael Mann and Meg Gardiner have deepened the legacy of Heat--and given us one hell of a page-turner. A stunning, mammoth achievement." -- Bill Beverly, author of Dodgers?

Synopsis
Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller! Michael Mann, four-time-Oscar-nominated writer-director of The Last of the Mohicans, The Insider, Ali, Miami Vice, Collateral, and Heat teams up with Edgar Award-winning author Meg Gardiner to deliver Mann's first novel, an explosive return to the universe and characters of his classic crime film--with an all-new story unfolding in the years before and after the iconic movie "A hard-boiled, cinematic read that moves as fast as a well-planned heist." --Esquire One day after the end of Heat, Chris Shiherlis (Val Kilmer) is holed up in Koreatown, wounded, half delirious, and desperately trying to escape LA. Hunting him is LAPD detective Vincent Hanna (Al Pacino). Hours earlier, Hanna killed Shiherlis's brother in arms Neil McCauley (Robert De Niro) in a gunfight under the strobe lights at the foot of an LAX runway. Now Hanna's determined to capture or kill Shiherlis, the last survivor of McCauley's crew, before he ghosts out of the city. In 1988, seven years earlier, McCauley, Shiherlis, and their highline crew are taking scores on the West Coast, the US-Mexican border, and now in Chicago. Driven, daring, they're pulling in money and living vivid lives. And Chicago homicide detective Vincent Hanna--a man unreconciled with his history--is following his calling, the pursuit of armed and dangerous men into the dark and wild places, hunting an ultraviolent gang of home invaders. Meanwhile, the fallout from McCauley's scores and Hanna's pursuit cause unexpected repercussions in a parallel narrative, driving through the years following Heat. Heat 2 projects its dimensional and richly drawn men and women into whole new worlds--from the inner sanctums of rival crime syndicates in a South American free-trade zone to transnational criminal enterprises in Southeast Asia. The novel brings you intimately into these lives. In Michael Mann's Heat universe, they will confront new adversaries in lethal circumstances beyond all boundaries. Heat 2 is engrossing, moving, and tragic--a masterpiece of crime fiction with the same extraordinary ambitions, scope, and rich characterizations as the epic film., Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller!

    Great for people that like the movie Heat and Michael Mann

    This book is written so well for people that love the movie Heat. I love reading it and savor every word. I have just started it but it is great so far and I can't wait to learn more of the backstory behind each of the characters in the book that was not shared in the movie from 1996. I'm obsessed with this book.
