Description
Fed up with the hypocrisy and bureaucracy of the LAPD, Harry Bosch has retired. But the life of a retiree doesn’t suit him. He has devoted himself to law enforcement out of a deep drive to see justice done equally for all. On his own, he is still drawn toward the abyss. And when he rediscovers a startling, unsolved murder among the old case files he’s been poring over, he knows he can’t rest until he finds the killer, with or without a badge. Moving ever further inside the remarkable character of Harry Bosch, whom the New York Post calls “the quintessential mystery book hero, ” Michael Connelly takes another step closer to the classic novels of Raymond Chandler in this breakneck, relentless, and potent new novel.
– Each Connelly book outsells its predecessors–he’s truly a writer who’s gaining momentum. City of Bones (published 4/01) hit the New York Times list at #3 and has more than 285,000 copies in print to date.
– Chasing the Dime, this Fall’s departure from Connelly’s incredibly successful Harry Bosch series, had a first printing of 325,000 (10/02).
– Connelly is his generation’s answer to Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler, and reviewers have taken note.
– Blood Work was the basis of a feature film starring Clint Eastwood, released in August 2002. The novel currently has over 1.3 million copies in print.
– For the first time ever, Connelly writes a Bosch novel in the first person, taking readers even deeper inside his most complex hero.
