I love the Harry Bosch series. He's a great homicide detective in LA with a lot of baggage from his Viet Nam past. This novel involves the death of two LA cops and Harry catches the case. He follows a bloody string of murders from Hollywood down to the back alleys south of the border. This is a complex and compelling murder mystery in which Harry is likely to be one of the victims. Fast paced and well written.

Connelly never disappoints. His Harry Bosch books carry the least amount of 'repeat material' of any I've read, each one is fresh and markedly different from the one before with plot twists and characters so alive you want to punch some and hug others. This tale gets far afield from the usual L.A. scene as the mystery behind an apparent suicide of a fellow cop is probed by Harry. Don't tell anyone you have it figured out until you've read the last chapter or you'll make a fool of yourself!

Love, love, love nearly anything he writes. I was even intrigued enough to check out the artist Bosch's paintings and some of his history. Connelly's Harry Bosch is a very flawed character, and I love him. This is a good one.

Second in the Harry Bosch series with Connelly's usual fast moving pace and twists and turns. Bit of a surprize at the end.

Great reading. This is the second of his books I have read and this was even better, more exciting and keeps you turning pages. The ending is surprising.

This story was an intense mystery with lots of suspense. I liked the way Harry followed his instincts even when it meant possibly losing his job.

Good story, very involved, lots of detail. Moved a little slow in spots; overall a good read. Perhaps you will think the end was predictible, but I didn't figure it out. After I read it, I though "oh, I should have seen that coming". Enjoy!
Another good Connelly read. Pretty much reads as you'd expect, which, from him, is a very good read. Good story, well written.
Didn't much care for this one, I like Harry Bosch but this one was just too complicated and hard to follow and I don't like stories about Mexico or cartels or anything like that, so I quit about half way through from lack of interest.
An intricate plot but Connelly keeps it all rolling along with great story telling and interesting characters.
Another good book by Connelly. It's so hard to believe that so many twists and variations can come from one person's mind. This one's about a cop that keeps everyone guessing--is he a good cop or has he gone bad? Lots of intrigue.
A Harry Bosch novel. Always great books, this is one of the better ones. Does Harry get to solve this one?

Second book in the Harry Bosch series. Another great mystery by Connelly...a fellow LAPD apparently commits suicide, but Bosch isn't so sure. He is then drawn into solving the mystery surrounding his death. Great fast paced read!
good book another great one in the Harry Bosch Detective series
GREAT addition to anyone's Harry Bosch saga!!! I read it in one night.
Second in the Harry Bosch series by Connolly. Good follow up to Black Echo.
Great read
Love this series!!! A Harry Bosch book.
Murder, Hollywood Boulevard, danger
I'm really loving the Bosch series!
great mystery book!
This is the first Harry Bosch book I read and started my love of this series.
An early Connelly that shows his greatness well... and sets up lots of stuff for later books in the series. Classic LA cop stuff.
Another great Harry Bosch story.
Not quite as good as the first one, but still very good. Excellent work by Connelly in continuing the growth of the Harry Bosch character.
Excellent Harry Bosch who-dun-it!
