Description
Harry Bosch finds himself yet again in charge of a case that no one else will touch. This time his job is to nail the killer of hot shot black lawyer Howard Elias. Elias has been found murdered on the eve of going to court on behalf of Michael Harris, a man the LAPD believes guilty of the rape and murder of a twelve-year-old girl.
Elias had let it be known that the aim of his civil case was not only to reveal the real killer but to target and bring down the racist cops who beat up his client during a violent interrogation. Now it's all down to Bosch - and he's got to take a long, hard look at some of his colleagues in a police department that is rife with suspicion and hatred.

Catastrophic reading
It's always a pleasure to dive into a new book of the Harry Bosch series, but this time, the narrator's style was a drawback. Regrettably, the reading is less than ideal. He forces his voice in a way that's similar to over-exaggerated ads. Such a delivery might be okay for a few seconds, but it becomes increasingly uncomfortable over hours of listening. Moreover, his disregard for punctuation disrupts the flow, leading to awkward pauses and occasionally omitting them where necessary.
The story itself, however, is captivating. The case is intriguing, and the context set in Los Angeles is very interesting to have a better understanding of this city. Elias, the lawyer who is the victim, reminded me of O.J. Simpson's lawyer. This association was likely intentional, given the numerous references to the O.J. Simpson case, the controversial cop Mark Furman, Rodney King, and the L.A. riots. Gaining insight from a police perspective is especially enlightening.
Yet, there's a recurring theme in the series that's becoming somewhat tiresome. Harry Bosch's perpetually chaotic personal life, paired with the improbable alertness despite prolonged sleep deprivation, detracts from the realism. Books from the 90s often used this approach to give characters an almost larger-than-life trait, but it feels overplayed now.
In conclusion, while I can't award 5 stars due to the narration, this book remains a worthy entry in the series. Fans of Harry Bosch will appreciate it for sure!
