Bosch returns in a fast moving mystery that will keep the reader turning the pages. This installment is missing some of the brooding of previous Bosch novels and I think that helped the story move along at a nice pace. If you are a Harry Bosch fan, you'll not want to miss "The Black Box".

Harry Bosch is back! Harry returns to investigate a crime that dates back twenty years. We start with flashback to the LA Riots when Harry and his partner go to a crime scene where I woman is dead. With so many deaths happening, they cannot commit as much time as they would like, which continued to bother Harry ever since.

The victim is a reporter from Denmark. It is believed she was in town to cover the riots, but there is so much more to her being there and thats what Harry has to find out.

The story flows really well. We also get to see Harry interact with his daughter a bit more then I remember from previous novels, which is good, cause it shows a different side of Harry.

If you have enjoyed the series thus far, then I believe you will enjoy this one.

Took me a couple books to like Harry Bosch but once you read about him and get used to his character then you want to read all the books about him.

This won't be a disappointment for anyone, it might move a little slow at times and it might have just a little too much descriptions at times but it is interesting how Bosch works a cold case.

I am a big fan of Michael Connelly's, and always anticipate being taken on a thrilling winding road when I sit down to read of his books. However, "The Black Box" was a major disappointment. It took me over 100 pages before I could get into it, and I only stuck with it because of my past exciting Connelly experiences and because this was a NYT bestseller (I actually think it received the bestseller nod merely because of Connelly's reputation, and not due to the pages in this book).
