Book Description:
In this fast-paced sequel to The Black Echo, LAPD detective Harry Bosch continues to investigate the drug-trafficking underworlds of inner-city Los Angeles and the wastelands of Mexico. When he discovers the body of a fellow police officer in a sleazy hotel, Harry gets entangled in a brutal web of violence and drugs.
Narcotics officer Cal Moore's orders were to look into the city's latest drug killing. Instead, he ends up in a motel room with his head in several pieces and a suicide note stuffed in his back pocket.
Years ago, Harry Bosch learned the first rule of the good cop: don't look for the facts, but the glue that holds them together. Now, Harry's making some very dangerous connections, starting with one dead cop and leading to a bloody string of murders that winds from Hollywood Boulevard's drug bazaar to the dusty back alleys south of the border and into the center of a complex and lethal game -- one in which Harry is the next and likeliest victim.

Starts small and then slowly introduces the complications, complexities and angles. Then piece by piece it unravels those complexities and puts them together into a dramatic conclusion. A good, clever detective novel.
3.5 stars out of 5

The Kansas City Star wrote "Connelly's Bosch could partner with John Sanford's Lucas Davenport. As fictional heroes, these '90s tough guys are a joy." I quoted the Star because I agree. Love the Harry Bosch books!! This one was great.
Leonora L. (The official report read suicide. Harry Bosch didn't beleive it. Harry follows the trail of bloody murders trying to find the "glue to hold the facts together"
The official report said sucide but in a city where murder is sport, Bosch isn't ready to blame the victim.
Maverick detective Harry Bosch solves another one in yet another of Connelly's excellent crime novels. Great!!
Great read. Connelly, or should I say Bosch, never ceases to intrigue and amaze me!
Excellent. The first part of the Harry Bosch saga.
number 2 for the Harry Bosch series.....I haven't found a bad one yet....right up there with the others!
