    Go back to where it all began for LAPD detective Harry Bosch, star of Amazon Prime's Bosch, in his first case The Black Echo - a gripping, action-packed thriller. LAPD detective Harry Bosch is a loner and a nighthawk. One Sunday he gets a call-out on his pager. A body has been found in a drainage tunnel off Mulholland Drive, Hollywood. At first sight, it looks like a routine drugs overdose case, but the one new puncture wound amid the scars of old tracks leaves Bosch unconvinced. To make matters worse, Harry Bosch recognises the victim. Billy Meadows was a fellow 'tunnel rat' in Vietnam, running against the VC and the fear they all used to call the Black Echo. Bosch believes he let down Billy Meadows once before, so now he is determined to bring the killer to justice.

    The Dollmaker was the name of the serial killer who had stalked Los Angeles ruthlessly, leaving grisly calling cards on the faces of his victims. Now, with a single faultless shot, Harry Bosch thinks he has ended the city's nightmare. But the dead man's widow is suing Harry and the LAPD for killing the wrong man - an accusation that rings terrifyingly true when a new victim is discovered with the Dollmaker's macabre signature. So, for the second time, Harry must hunt down a death-dealer who is very much alive, before he strikes again. It's a blood-tracked quest that will take Harry from the hard edges of the L.A. night to the last place he ever wanted to go - the darkness of his own heart.

  5. Back on the job after an involuntary leave of absence, LAPD homicide detective Harry Bosch is ready for a challenge. But his first case is a little 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 . . .

  15. Harry Bosch has been given three years before he must retire from the LAPD, and he wants cases more fiercely than ever. In one morning, he gets two. DNA from a 1989 rape and murder matches a 29-year-old convicted rapist. Was he an eight-year-old killer or has something gone terribly wrong in the new Regional Crime Lab? The latter possibility could compromise all of the lab's DNA cases currently in court. Then Bosch and his partner are called to a death scene fraught with internal politics. Councilman Irvin Irving's son jumped or was pushed from a window at the Chateau Marmont. Irving, Bosch's longtime nemesis, has demanded that Harry handle the investigation. Relentlessly pursuing both cases, Bosch makes two chilling discoveries: a killer operating unknown in the city for as many as three decades, and a political conspiracy that goes back into the dark history of the police department.

    In a case that spans 20 years, Harry Bosch links the bullet from a recent crime to a file from 1992, the killing of a young female photographer during the L.A. riots. Harry originally investigated the murder, but it was then handed off to the Riot Crimes Task Force and never solved. Now Bosch's ballistics match indicates that her death was not random violence, but something more personal, and connected to a deeper intrigue. Like an investigator combing through the wreckage after a plane crash, Bosch searches for the 'black box,' the one piece of evidence that will pull the case together.

    In this gripping thriller, Detective Harry Bosch and his rookie partner, Detective Lucia Soto, delve into a cold case that quickly heats up. The LAPD's Open-Unsolved Unit rarely sees murder victims who die long after their crimes, but when a man dies from complications related to a stray bullet wound sustained a decade earlier, Bosch finds himself with a perplexing case. The body may be fresh, but the clues are scarce, posing a challenge even for an experienced detective. Soto, eager yet inexperienced, has been paired with Bosch to learn from his expertise. Their investigation uncovers a politically sensitive murder linked to the bullet lodged in the victim's spine, revealing that the shooting was far from random. As they dig deeper, they stumble upon another unsolved case involving the tragic deaths of several children in a fire from twenty years prior. As their pursuit of the truth intensifies, Bosch and Soto face the dilemma of risking careers and lives to uncover secrets that some would prefer to keep buried. In a fast-paced narrative, Michael Connelly once again demonstrates why Harry Bosch remains a beloved figure in American crime fiction.

    Six months ago, Harry Bosch left the LAPD before they could fire him, and then hired maverick Defense Attorney Mickey Haller to sue the department for forcing him out. Although it wasn't the way he wanted to go, Harry has to admit that being out of the game has its benefits. Until Mickey asks him to help on one of his cases, and suddenly Harry is back where he belongs, right in the centre of a particularly puzzling murder mystery. The difference is, this time Harry is working for the defense, aiming to prevent the accused, Da'Quan Foster, from being convicted. And not only does the prosecution seem to have a cast-iron case, but having crossed over to 'the dark side' as his former colleagues would put it, Harry is in danger of betraying the very principles he's lived by his whole career.

    IJzersterke nieuwe thriller van de schrijver van De nachtploeg, de VN-Thriller van het Jaar 2018 Toen Harry Bosch net begon als rechercheur, nam John Jack Thompson hem onder zijn hoede en leerde hem alles wat hij moest weten over het vak. Zijn mentor was ervan overtuigd dat je maar op één manier een echt goede politieman kon zijn: door elke zaak persoonlijk op te nemen en met koppig doorzettingsvermogen aan te pakken. Als Thompson overlijdt, wordt Harry benaderd door zijn weduwe, die hem een oud dossier geeft. Het blijkt om een zaak te gaan die Thompson nooit heeft kunnen oplossen. Het dossier had hij op de dag van zijn pensioen tegen alle regels in mee naar huis genomen. Om erachter te komen waarom deze zaak Thompson zo dwarszat, gaat Harry naar Renée Ballard en vraagt haar hem te helpen de cold case op te lossen. Terwijl ze eraan werken, rijst de alarmerende vraag of Harry’s geliefde mentor het -dossier heeft meegenomen om de zaak tijdens zijn pensioen op te lossen… of om juist te voorkomen dat die ooit opgelost zou worden. De pers over Michael Connelly ‘Bijna griezelig hoe Connelly altijd weer de juiste toon weet te treffen.’ Vrij Nederland ‘De beste thrillerschrijver van allemaal.’ Algemeen Dagblad ‘Alles wat de man schrijft is zonder meer goed tot zeer goed.’ Humo
