This is the first book that I've read of Michael Connelly's and I am completely hooked! His writing style gives enough twists and turns to keep you interested all the way to the last page.

Bosch becomes entangled in a double slaying that also impinges on his personal life and workplace. Well written...as always by Connelly.
Helpful Score: 3
The Harry Bosch formula seems to be:
- Start with a simple murder
- Layer in Harry's struggling (and often unrelated) personal relationships
- Throw in serious conflict between Harry and his police department superiors
- Complicate the murder threefold
- Tie it all together and package it up with a clever climax
Works for me.

A really great read. This is the second if his ooks I have read and find it even more fascinating. Fine character development which is often missing in crime and detective novels. The action never stops.

Detective Bosch is dealing with race riots, and a wife who isn't sure she wants to be a wife , besides all the politicts of LAPD when a cop is suspected of a murder. This is a thrill ride and a good read.
