"The Overlook" is a short, fast moving book involving execution-style murder, the theft of cesium, and allegedly terrorism. Of course the best thing about this latest in the Harry Bosch series is Harry Bosch. He's older but still no-nonsense, persevering, thorough, and courageous. His dicey relationship with higher-ups in the LAPD and FBI is still present.

For those of you who have read all of the Bosch books, the deeper, more introspective Harry is missing. Though he meets ex-flame FBI agent Rachel Walling on the case, the hesitant romancing of Harry is missing here. He is still a jazz aficionado and knows the streets of LA like the back of his hand. This book will have to do until Connelly lets the reader catch up on Harry's life outside of the crime world.
