Order of John Lescroart Books

John T. Lescroart is an American novelist who writes legal and crime thrillers centered around Dismas Hardy and his associates around him. The characters in his series books (Abe Glitsky, Wyatt Hunt and Gina Roake) commonly cross over to his others series, creating an entire connected universe of legal thrillers.
Lescroart has been writing since his 1981 debut Sunburn (a standalone novel), although most of his novels since that time have been series novels. Below is the order in which Lescroart’s published works have been released:
