Michael Connelly seems to be one of our most successful crime writers. I usually read a crime nove or two per year. It turns out that I've read several Connelly books this year. His two continuing protagonists are Mickey Haller, the Lincoln lawyer, and Harry Bosch, the detective. This is the latest Bosch novel.
It's good. It's entertaining, mostly for the character of Bosch, a widower with a 15-yr. old daughter, who is in the last 5 years of his law enforcement career. He contines his job with passion although he occasionally looks forward to quitting.
The plot is fun but the end is dull. The novel ends with a thud rather than a flash, but that's OK. I don't expect to go back and read the earlier Bosch novels, but I am likely to read new ones going forward.
