The Closers (Harry Bosch, Bk 11)
reviewed One of Connelly's BEst! on + 111 more book reviews


Connelly is one of the best mystery writers around today. Articulate, literate, creative, he is for me one of those who are currently holding the gold standard. He can sometimes seem unrelentingly dark, but he's never boring, and never ever stupid.

Harry Bosch comes back to the job after three years of retirement specifically to work with still open cases with his old partner Kiz. They immediately become involved with an intricate case that could explode in their faces because of the intervention of one of their bosses in stopping the investigation years ago. Evidence "lost" and possible racial problems simmering in the death of a biracial teenage beauty make this a page turner that I didn't want to put down until I finsihed. This is how mysteries should be written!

Highly recommended!
