by Michael Connelly
This book was grim. It looks at a post 9/11 world and how many will just make excuses in the name of keeping our country safe. It also shows how trying to do the right thing could leave you in a hole in the ground dead. Now that Bosch is no longer with the LAPD (read "City of Bones") he is investig...
The Harry Bosch story continued after he retired from the police force. What to like about the story?The way the story is told, you know as much as the Bosch know, and get bits and pieces of information as the story developed. One third through the story and it is like watching an episode of Bo...
Great book, nice wrap-up. But I'm not sure how I feel about the ending.

I guess you could say this is same, same. Harry does his thing and you like that or you don't. What struck me, and seems worthy of mention is that there aren't any suspensions of belief, none of those moments that can spoil this type of story. Every last detail fits into place.
I am giving this book 3 stars..not because it is poorly written, but because it just didn't interest me. I find the Harry Bosch series to be like an overacted movie for some reason. I keep trying Michael Connelly books because he strikes me as an author I should enjoy, but I just cannot get into his...
I read (or listen) to everything Michael Connelly writes, and he never disappoints. This is the ninth novel featuring Hieronymus (Harry) Bosch, who remains dedicated to uncovering the truth no matter where it might lead. Harry has retired from the LAPD, disillusioned by his countless battles with po...
