Summary
The latest installment of the Harry Bosch series has the
LAPD homicide detective reopening the 30-year-old unsolved
murder of his mother.
After being put on involuntary stress leave for attacking
his boss, LAPD detective Hieronymous "Harry" Bosch tackles
the 30-plus-year-old murder case of a Hollywood
prostitute?his mother. Bummed out by the failure of his
latest romance as well, Harry faces a deeper, psychological
crisis: his life's "mission" may end if he solves the case.
Harry continues, nonetheless, soon discovering that the
police and politically powerful others purposely glossed over
his mother's murder. With prose that cuts to the quick, a
masterfully interwoven plot, and gripping suspense, Connelly
renders a fitting sequel to The Black Echo (LJ 1/92).
