missingvolume | #120 The Burning Room by Michael Connelly

Harry is training Lucy a new partner and a fairly new cop. As they are working on a case that is both old and new Harry finds Lucy reading yet another case and finds out the reason she became a cop. When she was a child she was a survivor of arson at a daycare center that killed several children. Harry does what he can to try and get them the old arson case without mentioned that there is a conflict of interest. In the end, Harry closes several cases but becomes even more disillusion about being a cop and making it to the end of his retirement.
