Another stunning thriller from the Harry Bosch series - 5*

Well done Connelly! How does he do it? How? How? How? I've grown quite attached to Harry Bosch and I don't know why. At first, I was confused and just assumed he was a stereotypical 80s detective and maybe he still is but he gets the job done and that's great.

The plot is the most stunning attribute of the Harry Bosch series. It is unpredictable and exciting. I can't get enough of it.

I'm ready for number three. Excited!

Otra de Harry Bosch. Aire vintage. Esta no la había "visto" en la serie.
Bien. Inverosímil la escena del toro bravo. Recomendable.

The second book in the Harry Bosch series continues to establish it as a fine example of detective fiction. It is smart, suspenseful, and Harry makes for a complex yet relatable protagonist. My only quibble with Harry hinges on his romantic decisions. In that arena I seriously question his judgment, lol.

I listened to the audiobook, which had a great performance.

There were some slow parts, but overall it was a good story with good writing.

Classic Bosch

Trying to read the Bosch books in order and this one did not disappoint. Harry doesn’t always play by the rules, but he gets the job done and does what he needs to do that the truth comes to light.
