missingvolume | #95 The Crossing by Michael Connelly

The twentieth Harry Bosch novel has him dealing with no longer being a police officer. Still in the early stages of his forced retirement due to his actions in the previous book Harry’s brother approaches him about a case he is working on. Harry has no desire to cross the line and work against the police but something about the case nags at him and he begins to help Mickey with the defense of an innocent man on trial for murder. Of course Harry just doesn’t try and clear him he also finds the actual killers. His actions start a trail of dominos falling that will connect several murders and makes waves through LA.

A good solid read but now I’m wondering where Harry will go next in his retirement. I can’t see him working for his brother but I also don’t see him just sitting around either.
