Published in 2003, Michael Connelly remains on the top of his writing game for this Harry Bosch novel. We are used to the character now and Connelly's writing skills are honed to perfection.Harry Bosch the LA Detective has resigned from LAPD and is now a private investigator. He investigates an old case. The case he is investigating involves the death of Angela Benton who had worked for a bank that had loaned $2 million in cash to a film company to be used in a film but the cash was stolen during a robbery during shooting.
The novel has all sorts of twists and turns before the solution to all the puzzles in your head are solved in the last few pages. Classic writing. You learn more about Harry Bosch and are interested in his life too. Connelly's description of Los Angeles is great too, giving you a slightly lonely empty feeling as well as a City with energy and feeling.
A 9/10 for classic Michael Connelly.
