DESCRIPTION:
LAPD Detective Harry Bosch crosses paths with FBI profiler Terry McCaleb in the most dangerous investigation of their lives.Harry Bosch is up to his neck in a case that has transfixed all of celebrity-mad Los Angeles: a movie director is charged with murdering an actress during sex, and then staging her death to make it look like a suicide. With one unsettling revelation after another, they merge, becoming one impossible, terrifying case, involving almost inconceivable calculation. But his investigation tangles with Bosch's lines, and the two men find themselves at odds in the most dangerous investigation of their lives.. McCaleb believes he has unmasked the most frightening killer ever to cross his sights. It's a murder, the unreadable kind of murder he specialized in solving back in his FBI days. Bosch is both the arresting officer and the star witness in a trial that has brought the Hollywood me
"Even better" according to A Customer. I almost skipped this one because of the negative reviews. And I can understand them. Bosch himself doesn't even show up until 80+ pages in.

Michael Connelly writes an excellent story. This is one of those books you start and finish in one sitting. Don't make any plans once you begin. A great read.
He's newly married (to Graciela, who herself dragged him from retirement into a case in Blood Work), has a new baby daughter, and is finally strong again after a heart transplant. He was Netherlandish, part of the northern renaissance. But once a bloodhound, always a bloodhound. But there's more than one black hat in them thar hills, and Connelly masterfully joins the plot lines in a climax and denouement that will leave readers gasping but satisfied. By chance, however, McCaleb discovers an abstruse but concrete link between the sc
