The Last Coyote by Michael Connelly

5.0

Harry Bosch is on leave with pay and seeing the psychiatrist after assaulting his supervisor. His home has also been destroyed by an earthquake and condemned by the city, yet he is furtively living in it. Everything that could be wrong is wrong. So he decides to work a cold case, the death of his mother who was a prostitute. The doctor warns him that he might not like the answers he finds. And Connelly proceeds to lead the reader on a suspenseful and riveting read that lulls the reader into a dawning awareness that the doctor knows of what she speaks as well as the reader knowing where it’s all headed. Wrong! Connelly has at least three jaw dropping plot twists that come from out of nowhere. Nothing is ever easy with Bosch and the body count in this tale leaves him an even more tortured soul. The truth it seems does not set you free. Connelly is the best.
