I just finished this book today. I absolutely loved it. I thought it was a great story. The plot kept me guessing right until the end. I found it a very quick read.

Near Mulholland Drive, Dr Stanley Kent is found shot twice in the back of the head. It's the case LAPD detective Harry Bosch has been waiting for, his first since being recruited to the Homicide Spdical Squad. When he descovers that Kent had access to dangerous radioactive substances, what begins as a routine investigation becomes something darker, more deadly, and frighteningly urgent. Bosch is soon in conflict with not only his superiors but the FBI, which thinks the case is too important for just a cop. Complicating his job even more is the presence of Agent Rachel Walling, his onetime lover. Now guarding one slim advantage, Bosch relentlessly follows his own instincts, hoping they are still sharp enough to find the truth--and a killer who can annihilate an entire city.

Another great one from Connelly, although it was kind of short and I felt some of the characters and relationships could have been more developed. The topic is timely and raises some interesting post-9/11 questions.
