Synopsis

LAPD Detective Harry Bosch as we've never seen him before, in three never-before-collected stories.

In "Suicide Run," the apparent suicide of a beautiful young starlet turns out to be much more sinister than it seems. In "Cielo Azul," Bosch is haunted by a long-ago closed case -- the murder of a teenage girl who was never identified. As her killer sits on death row, Bosch tries one last time to get the answers he has sought for years. In "One Dollar Jackpot," Bosch works the murder of a professional poker player whose skills have made her more than one enemy.

Whether investigating a cold case or fresh blood, Bosch relentlessly pursues his quarry, always on the lookout for the "tell." In this first collection of Harry Bosch stories, Michael Connelly once again demonstrates that he is the master of "fast-paced, brilliantly plotted crime fiction.... Harry Bosch is back on the case, and not a moment too soon" (Chicago Sun Times).

I'm reading them in the chronology of Connelly's universe which includes all his characters since they intertwine a lot. 10.5 - Cielo Azul(2001) - a lot of the story takes place 12 years before this time. Harry is trying to tie up a loose end & remembering wha......more

Goodreads review by William on September 18, 2018

The stories all delivered with the pertinent parts of a mystery with the fluff. For those who complain about the brevity of the stories, consider this: maybe they are because the author could not develop them into a 300 page novel? My opinion is quality over quantity in most things.......more
