When a body is found in a hotel room, reporters are soon all over the case: it appears to be a missing LAPD narcotics detective, apparently gone to the bad. The rumours were that he had been selling a new drug called Black Ice that had been infiltrating Los Angeles from the Mexican cartel.
The LAPD are quick to declare the death a suicide, but Harry Bosch is not so sure. There are odd mysteries and unexplained details from the crime scene which just don't add up. Fighting an attraction to the detective's widow, Bosch starts his own maverick investigation, which soon leads him over the borders and into a dangerous world of shifting identities, police politics and deadly corruption ...
A former police reporter for the Los Angeles Times, Michael Connelly is the internationally bestselling author of thirty-six novels. He has created many genre-defining characters, including crime reporter Jack McEvoy, lawyer Mickey Haller and detectives Rene Ballard and Harry Bosch, the protagonists in Connelly's latest release The Dark Hours.
