Publisher's summary

LAPD Detective Harry Bosch tackles three tough cases that span a legendary career in this never-before-collected trio of stories.

In "Christmas Even", the case of a burglar killed in mid-heist leads Bosch to retrace a link to his past. In "Father's Day", Bosch investigates a young boy's seemingly accidental death and confronts his own fears as a father. In "Angle of Investigation", Bosch delves into one of the first homicides he ever worked back as a uniformed rookie patrolman, a case that was left unsolved for decades.

Together, these gripping stories span Bosch's controversial career at the LAPD, and show the evolution of the haunted, legendary investigator he would become. Utterly unputdownable, they are proof that "Connelly never stops doling out the suspense.... Once it grabs you in those first few pages, it won't let go of you" (Boston Globe).

Impressed? Ace detective Harry Bosch is also on the case in exciting Michael Connelly crime-fiction novels.

Well crafted stories that keep you wanting more

Michael Connelly is an excellent writer and knows his subject and characters very well. Len Cariou is a great narrator for Harry Bosch books and makes them even more believable.

A Great "Snack" for the Ears

If you could sum up Angle of Investigation in three words, what would they be?

A Treat for All Bosch Fams

Who was your favorite character and why?

Harry

Which character ??? as performed by Len Cariou ??? was your favorite?

Harry....Len Cariou IS Harry Bosch in my mind

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

YES

Any additional comments?

I like the fact that we can venture through time to learn more about Harry and his past. These were perfect in length

What does Len Cariou bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

the emotion in his voice seems to fit what i think harry sounds like

Any additional comments?

Interesting short stories. I really enjoy Connely

stories. He is a very proglic storyteller. I look forward to reading more of his works. The last story end with a question I hope the is a conclusive answer.
I would like to continue listening to Audio books because I grew up in when we did not have TV only radio and only our imagination to put it all together.

Connelly should stick with full length novels!

Angle of investigation like Suicide Run includes three Harry Bosch short stories by Michael Connelly. While of adequate quality, they are not nearly as good as his full length novels. "Adequate" does not fit Connelly well because it implies "disappointing".

Short Stories

While they are short they are good. I think some can be made into a full book but I love some of the stories going back to his partnering with Jerry. I wouldn't mind seeing a few prequel books

We can't get enough Harry Bosch!

A batch of shtorter stories of the Harry Bosch skill and experience in solving crimes. It fits in the canon well although a different length and a quicker resolution. Still a good dose of Bosch that makes great listening. Len Cariou is a great narrator and had a great voice for such stories and he makes Harry sound great.........but he's apparently past his prime and seems to be having a tough time reading. He used to be the best! Still is good.
