The Concrete Blonde
This high-voltage thriller opens with Homicide Detective Bosch battling charges as the chief defendant in a civil suit against the LAPD. The family of a notorious serial killer whom Bosch shot during an arrest four years ago has accused Bosch of killing the wrong man. This allegation becomes horrifyingly plausible when a new murder occurs with all the hallmarks of the dead slayer’s style.
The Last Coyote
Harry attacked his commanding officer and is suspended indefinitely, pending a psychiatric evaluation. At first he resists the LAPD shrink, but finally recognizes that something is troubling him and has for a long time. In 1961, when Harry was twelve, his mother, a prostitute, was brutally murdered with no one ever accused of the crime.
Trunk Music
Back on the job after an involuntary leave of absence, LAPD homicide detective Harry Bosch is ready for a challenge. But his first case is a little more than he bargained for. It starts with the body of a Hollywood producer in the trunk of a Rolls-Royce, shot twice in the head at close range―what looks like “trunk music,” a Mafia hit.
Wonderful writing and reading I enjoyed reading each of the novels in this collection. I am a very recent reader to Michael Connelly, starting with The Lincoln Lawyer. I like the style and the mystery in each one. I will be purchasing more of the Bosch Series because I like Harry and how he works. This set is a very good purchase, go for it.
A great listening experience for any mystery fan. Dick Hill does a fine job of turning these three Michael Connelly mysteries into audiobooks. He makes a lot of acting decisions I would not have expected, giving unique voices to many of the supporting characters who populate detective Harry Bosch’s world. I was a little disappointed to realize that these audiobooks are abridgements, but since I’d already read all three books, I welcomed the experience of having the characters and scenes come to life with such fine readings.Â
Connelly Fan I like anything Michael Connelly writes, so of course, I enjoyed this CD collection. The only complaint I have is that it is abridged, but I probably new that when I ordered it and just forgot later.Â
