Rating:  Summary: Connelly continues to excel Review: I loved this book. The Bosch series just gets better and better. I have come to really like Harry. He is so real. He is a great cop but he makes mistakes. The interesting thing is, he realizes it and always tries to improve on it while he continues to fight the demons that haunt him from his past and present. My advice is, if you are going to read the Bosch series, start from the beginning (Black Echo). Each book pulls from the previous ones regarding characters and story lines. That's what makes these books so good. This series ties everything in and gives closure at the end. It makes you want to read the next one...right away.
Rating:  Summary: The best of the bosch Review: Its difficult to compare Michael Connelly's books because I don't know how anyone can read one and then not immediately want to read everything that he has ever written like I have. But if you are new to the series I would say start with this one or Angels Flight. The Last Coyote is a great mystery story with great characters. Harry Bosch has been suspended from the LAPD pending a psychiatric evaluation for throwing his supervisor through a plate glass window. He uses his time off to solve the mystery that has haunted him his whole life, the murder of his own mother in 1961 Los Angeles. He digs up the police report and soon discovers that it was not quite as thorough as it should have been. It is a great book.
