All of his books are fast, intelligent reads, but I especially like his Harry Bosch detective series. This is one of the best of that lot. Another good Harry Bosch story that brings together Bosch and Agent Rachel Walling from a previous Michael Connelly book - The Poet. FBI agent Rachael Walling finally gets the call she's dreaded for years: the one that tells her the Poet has returned. I've been looking for a decent crime/mystery writer ever since I finished reading all of John D. MacDonald's books. I've found a few decent writers, but none to match MacDonald. This is the first book I've read by Michael Connelly. I'd say Connelly's not MacDonald, but he's the closest I've come to MacDonald so far. I have 4 more of his books and I'm looking forward to reading them. no reviews | add a review
