A review by neumanzoo
Trunk Music by Michael Connelly

2.0

I've been (re-) reading the Bosch series in order, and so far the books are compelling and fast paced. This one felt like a turtle was running through molasses. It was way too wordy, with repeated details about Bosch's smoking habits and food choices, not to mention a ridiculous storyline that turned out to be a red herring. Way too many non-relevant details throughout, and an ending that was not really surprising. The previous novel in the Bosch Universe, The Poet, was a far better read and left me wanting more. Trunk Music left me wishing I had the time spent on it back.
