A review by hidusty
Trunk Music by Michael Connelly
3.0
I'd give this book 4 stars if not for the damned chapter formatting. I can't stand an entire book having only 10 chapters.
As for the story, Connelly does it again. The beginning of the story starts slow because it seems like Connelly is just demonstrating how much he knows about police procedure. It seemed overly detailed but I guess there are probably those in that line of work who really like when the story goes that route because it's familiar to them. For me, I like the tension between Harry and his co-workers. I like that he has the edge that he does.
The book took several twists and just like Bosch I thought the case was solved at several junctions and then I was surprised to find out that there was more to come. The ending was a surprise and not at all what I would have expected. Should be interesting to see how this plays out.
