As you will see, the trip to Miami meant that I had a lot of time on the plane and airport for reading.
This, the third book in Michael Connelly's Harry Bosch series, is without a doubt an exceptional telling of a murder myster.
Michael Connelly has created a character in Harry Bosch that I would want to spend time with but fear...like hanging out with FBT.
This old friend is a Vietnam vet still traumatized by going through enemy tunnels while on duty as a tunnel rat in "Nam" -- now he's an LAPD homicide detective so he's still being traumatized on a daily basis.
This thriller finds Harry not only on the streets solving crimes but also in the courtroom defending himself in a civil suit brought by the widow of a serial killer known as "The Dollmaker" -- a bad man that he shot in the line of duty before the Harry Bosch novels began.
If you're into the mystery/thriller genre and want to sink your teeth into a series with a great protagonist and even greater writing and storylines, try Connelly's series featuring Harry "Hieronymus" Bosch.
To find out what really makes Harry tick and to find out where he got the ridiculous name of Hieronymus, you should read the books in order starting with the first one,
Combining this book and my recent decision to watch some old episodes of Tour of Duty have made me a happy happy happy camper.
