Publisher's summary

Former FBI agent Rachel Walling is working a dead-end stint in South Dakota when she gets the call she's been dreading for four years. The Poet is back. And he has not forgotten Rachel. He has a special present for her.

Harry Bosch is adjusting to life in Las Vegas as a private investigator and as a new father. He gets a call, too, from the widow of a friend who died recently. Previously in his FBI career, the friend worked on the famous case tracking the killer known as The Poet. This fact alone makes some of the elements of his death doubly suspicious. And Harry Bosch is heading straight into the path of the most ruthless and inventive murderer he has ever encountered.

One of the best Bosch books

Great pace and story, finally a decent and subtle music score. Listened to it really fast!

poetic justice

Where does The Narrows rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Harry Bosch is at the top of my list of favourites,,always. A plot that challenges me and pulls me right in to find this elusive chameleon.the fbi joisting with LAPD leaves room for a smile, albeit tense. All of this plot sat tightly together with briliant flow from vivd scene to vivd scene.MC created a smart way to bring some sweet promise of romance back into Harry's life for the next book.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

I can barely breathe out I am in so much suspense! A gifted criminal who knows the ropes and is one step ahead, MC lures the best from each character, we know that Harry is going to get his man, but the catch is a chilling journey.

Which scene was your favorite?

Harry is always so smooth. Loved the way he just rocks on up in the desert and then even gets rescued by Rachel. The almost tragic narrows and then it doesn't even end there. Where next?

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

poetic justice! Has to become "a Poet's Justice"

Any additional comments?

Really missed the music in this one, especially since he was driving long distances. Some Frank Morgyn or who would he have like in this situation?

Great book but..

A great Bosch story and a great reader, but I found the music used and its timing confusing.
