Book Description:
At the center of this engrossing thriller is world-weary, retired L.A. homicide detective Harry Bosch. While investigating the death of ex-FBI profiler Terry McCalab, Bosch begins to suspect that the notorious serial killer The Poet, presumed dead, may be the culprit. As he digs deeper, Bosch meets and eventually joins forces with FBI agent Rachel Walling, who went up against The Poet the first time around. The novel's point of view cuts from Bosch's first-person commentary to the third-person perspectives of Walling and The Poet.Members who requested this book also requested:

If you've never read Connelly or if you've read Connelly, but not one of his Bosch books, this is a great one to start with. It sets the stage for many of his later books. When I read the back of one of Connelly's Bosch books, I never thought I would be interested, but a friend lent me a copy so I gave it a try. NOW I AM HOOKED! I think I've now read every book Connelly has ever written.

In this one, he pulls in Terry McCaleb (Blood Work) and Rachel (the FBI agent who shot the Poet) and The Poet (Backus-agent turned serial killer) and of course, Mr. Harry Bosch. I love everything by Connelly. This is another great one. (10th of the Bosch series)

Lynda C. (Turgid thriller with all the pacing excitement of a snail race. Part of the Harry Bosch series, this time dealing with Bosch investigating the death of a retired FBI agent which appears to be tied to the reappearance of a serial-killer rogue agent.
Quinn A. from ABERDEEN, ID wrote on 7/20/2008...The Narrows Michael Connelly This was a good follow up Novel to “The Poet”. The poet is back after eight years and he is killing again. Harry Bosch's friend dies a mysterious death and his wife has asked him to check into it. Harry must unravel the clues and with the help of Rachel Walling, the FBI agent, they must stop The Poet from striking again. This was a good book, it kept my interest throughout, it was a non-stop energy ride with plenty of twists and turns. The ending however was not worthy of this book or the book “The Poet”. If the ending would have been better this book would have been a 5/5. Instead, it ended as somewhat of a dud. Grade 3/5
I love these books with Harry Bosch and this one adds in Terry McCaleb in the story. A great read!
How can you go wrong with Harry Bosch? Michael Connelly is at the top of my favorite authors list - and The Narrows doesn't disappoint.
Another great Harry Bosch novel. Michael Connelly is one of the best.
Kathleen F. from ELLICOTT CITY, MD wrote on 4/1/2007...Honestly, I read it so long ago, I don't remember much about it.
Harry Bosch connects with FBI folks from the Poet, who returns in this one.
5-star awesome and gripping thriller
