A review by gh_monroe
The Last Coyote by Michael Connelly

4.0

This is the story that you knew was coming after you read the first in the Harry Bosch series. This is the book in which Bosch is compelled to hunt down his own mother's killer. It is said that everyone has “a past” and this, apparently is indeed the case. Unlike many writers of whodunits, Connelly gives us enough to work things out for ourselves, which is satisfying. There is nothing more frustrating than to reach the end of a whodunit and find out that the hero solved the mystery through the use of some clue that you did not have equal access to.

This book is well written, engaging and a breeze of a read. Of Connelly's first four books, I would put this one on a par with, The Concrete Blonde, which I liked appreciably more than The Black Ice & The Black Echo.
