Publisher's summary

Back on the job after an involuntary leave of absence, LAPD homicide detective Harry Bosch is ready for a challenge - but a murderous Las Vegas crime ring might prove to be more than he bargained for.

It starts with the body of a Hollywood producer in the trunk of a Rolls-Royce, shot twice in the head at close range - what looks like "trunk music", a Mafia hit. But the LAPD's organized crime unit is curiously uninterested, and when Harry follows a trail of gambling debts to Las Vegas, the case suddenly becomes more complex - and much more personal.

A rekindled romance with an old girlfriend opens new perspectives on the murder, and he begins to glimpse a shocking triangle of corruption and collusion. Yanked off the case, Harry himself is soon the one being investigated. But only a bullet can stop Harry when he's searching for the truth.

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

Critic reviews

"Dick Hill is well versed in Bosch's style after two audiobooks in the series. Hill delivers the squad room banter and the interviews with suspects and witnesses with perfection....Bosch is immensely likeable, and Hill defines his character memorably." (AudioFile)

Narrator is super!

The Harry Bosch books are great. One thing I notice anytime Dick
Hill narrates is what an incredibly good reader he is. I completely get lost in the characters because he does such a fine job.

Convoluted story line with interesting characters

Long but good. The twists and turns are always an interesting ride. Narrated very well.

Another Bosch winner

Great narration and well written story as usual. This story was a little more complicated than others, but I enjoy the twists and turns.

True Bosch! Good question…who checks behind the cops who check the cops! Not accurate quote but you get the question.

no straight lines, lots of details

one of my all time favorite Connolly/Bosch books. Dick Hill is a master. Connolly needs to go back to using him for future reads, bring Bosch back to life!

Great book to read, and a good listen…

… However, it would’ve been a great listen, if someone narrated other than Dick Hill. When Dick Hill reads, you get too much of him and not enough Michael Connelly.
