City of Bones by Michael Connelly
3.0
Digital audio narrated by Peter J Fernandez.
3.5***
Book eight in the popular Harry Bosch detective mystery series. When a man’s dog returns from exploring a wooded hillside bearing a human bone, Harry gets called to investigate. The bone is not recent, and once more of the skeleton is recovered, the medical examiner notes signs of continued abuse, including multiple healed fractures. Who is this child? And who was the murderer?
I really like this series, partly because I really like Harry Bosch. He’s a great detective, and does his best to circumvent the political minefield of a big-city police department and political interests that seem to interfere with investigating and discovering the truth.
The action is fast paced and Connelly gives the reader enough red herrings to keep anyone guessing.
Peter J Fernandez does a fine job narrating the audiobook. He moves along at a good clip, and does a pretty good job of voicing the women characters as well as the men.
