LOVED this book! When Harry Bosch and his half brother Mickey Haller join forces, I'm overjoyed.

Harry has two overlapping adventures, one for the San Fernando Police Dept where he works part time for no salary so he can keep his Detective badge. He and his coworkers try to find a serial rapist frightening the community.

The other is a fascinating story about a 86 year old billionaire nearing the end of his life battling cancer. He wants Harry to find out what happened to a Mexican girl he was in love with and pregnant with his baby while he was in the Army. The mogul's father made sure the girl disappeared and he never saw her again. He is desperate to find out if he has an heir to his large estate. I was so engrossed with this tale, I couldn't sleep until I finished the book.

Michael Connelly's books have never disappointed me and get better and better with each edition.
