    Harry Bosch, detective de la Policía de Los Ángeles, ha sido siempre un solitario.

La víctima, Billy Meadows, había servido en su misma unidad. Ambos eran "ratas de túnel", ambos combatieron en los túneles del Viet Cong y ambos habían experimentado el horror del "eco negro". Ahora Meadows está muerto, pero su rastro parece apuntar a un gran atraco bancario perpretado a través de la red de túneles del alcantarillado.

    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 . . .

    After three years as a PI, Harry Bosch returns to the LAPD, working with his former cop ally and partner, Kizmin Rider. Harry and Kiz are assigned to the LAPD's Open Unsolved Unit. These detectives are the Closers; they put a shovel in the dirt and turn over the past. Harry and Kiz are immediately thrown into a politically sensitive and dangerous case when a DNA match connects a white supremacist to the 1988 murder of a mixed-race sixteen-year-old girl. As he navigates the case, Harry finds a police department far different from the one he left three years earlier. A new Chief has been brought over from New York to change the bad old culture of corruption - or that's the theory. But one thing hasn't changed - Harry's nemesis, Irving. The former Deputy Chief has been pushed from power and given a virtually meaningless new role. Full of vengeance, Irving calls Harry a 'retread'. He watches from the sidelines like an injured bear, hoping Harry will make a mistake...

    In 1993, Harry Bosch was assigned the case of a missing person, Marie Gesto. The young woman was never found - dead or alive - and the case has haunted Bosch ever since. Thirteen years later Bosch is in the Open-Unsolved Unit, where he still keeps the Gesto file on his desk, when he gets a call from the DA's office. A man accused of two heinous killings is willing to come clean in regard to several other murders in a deal to avoid the death penalty. One of those murders, he says, is the killing of Marie Gesto. In confirming the confession Bosch must get close to the man he has sought - and hated - for thirteen years. Bosch's whole being as a cop begins to crack when he comes to realise that he and his partner missed a clue back in 1993 which could have led them to Waits and would have stopped the nine murders that followed the killing of Marie Gesto...

  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.

  16. ¿Qué relación puede guardar un asesinato reciente con un crimen acontecido dos décadas atrás? El inspector Harry Bosch debe plantearse dicha pregunta cuando, por alguna extraña razón, la investigación de un homicidio le hace regresar a la peor época que recuerda de su larga trayectoria profesional: las revueltas raciales que arrasaron Los Ángeles en 1992. A medida que avance en el nuevo caso, Bosch deberá volver sobre aquellos turbulentos días en que la ciudad pareció volverse loca y en los que una joven fotógrafa murió bajo extrañas circunstancias. Quizá la resolución del crimen del presente sea también la respuesta a aquella muerte jamás resuelta del pasado.

  17. No hay muchas víctimas que mueran una década después de que se cometa el crimen. Así pues, cuando un hombre fallece por las complicaciones derivadas de un balazo recibido diez años antes, a Harry Bosch le corresponde un caso en el que el cuerpo todavía está fresco pero apenas hay ninguna otra pista. Incluso para un policía veterano sería un caso complicado. Y la nueva compañera de Bosch en el Departamento de Policía de Los Ángeles, la detective Lucía Soto, no tiene ninguna experiencia en homicidios. A Bosch y a Soto se les encarga resolver un caso de alta tensión y con implicaciones políticas. Empezando por la bala que ha permanecido alojada durante años en la columna vertebral de la víctima, los detectives deben conseguir nuevas pistas a partir de pruebas reunidas años atrás, y éstas pronto revelan que el disparo no tuvo nada de aleatorio. Cuando la investigación gana velocidad, conduce a otro caso sin resolver en el que todavía hay más en juego: las muertes de varios niños en un incendio ocurrido veinte años atrás. Pero cuando su trabajo empieza a amenazar carreras y vidas, Bosch y Soto deben decidir si vale la pena arriesgarlo todo para encontrar la verdad o si es más seguro dejar que algunos secretos permanezcan enterrados.

    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.
