May 1992, and after four LAPD officers were acquitted after the savage beating of Rodney King, Los Angeles is ablaze. As looting and burning take over the city, law and order are swept away in a tidal wave of violence. But under threat of their lives, homicide detectives like Harry Bosch are still stubbornly trying to do their job. With no effective police presence on the streets, murder just got a whole lot easier - and investigating them got a whole lot harder.

When Harry finds the body of a female journalist in an alley he is forced to hand over the case to the Riot Crimes Task Force, knowing that it will never be solved.

Twenty years later, new evidence confirms her death was not a case of random violence but something much more personal. This time Harry is determined that the killer isn't going to escape - even if it means stepping back into the darkest days of the city he loves...

Connelly's Los Angeles cop Harry Bosch finds himself retired but roped in to try to reduce the growing pile of unsolved crimes in his city ... Bosch steps in proves his retirement is just as exciting, dangerous and gripping as his previous life.
For 20 years Connelly's creation Harry Bosch has been fighting crime in LA and the author is marking the anniversary with this taut and clever thriller ... a treat
An engrossing slice of LA noir
THE BLACK BOX is another novel steeped in recent history ... it's a story that's as old as the genre itself but Connelly's skill is such that it all feels entirely fresh and vibrant, but heartbreakingly poignant too.
Another gripping and excellent thriller
Another winner from Michael Connelly

It’s been a while since I last read a Bosch book, but I thoroughly enjoyed reconnecting with Harry Bosch. The atmosphere was reminiscent of the earlier books, making me feel right at home. The plot, centered around a cold case, was engaging and well-paced, especially with the exciting acceleration towards the end. Initially, I was concerned about the new narrator, but they did a fantastic job capturing Bosch’s character. Although cold cases can sometimes drag, this one was vivid and alive, seamlessly integrating a significant part of American history, making the book even more captivating. I 100% recommend it to fans of the series.

Immersed in Bosch once again
