| Michael Connelly Unabridged CD 6 Hours
A body is found on the overlook near Mulholland Drive. The victim,
identified as Dr. Stanley Kent, has atwo bullet holes in the back of his head
from what looks like an execution-style shooting. LAPD detective Harry
Bosch is called out to investigate. It is the case he has been waitinf or,
his first since being recruited to the city's Homicide Special Squad.
As soon as Bosch begins retracing Dr. Kent's steps, contracdictions emerge.
While Kent doesn't seem to have had tie4s to organized crime, he did have access
to dangerous radioactive substances from just about every hospital in Los
Angeles County. What begins as a routine homicide investigation opens up
before Bosch into something much larger and more dangerous -- and much more
urgent.
Breaking in a new rookie partner and chasing his first fresh case in years,
Bosch is soon in conflict not just with the LAPD brass but also with FBI
hotshots who are convinced that the case is too important for the likes of the
LAPD. Harry's complicated onetime lover Rachel Walling is among the
federal agents frantically working the case, making Bosch's job all the more
complicated. Guarding one slim advantage, he relentlessly follows his own
instincts, hoping they are still true enough to solve the crime -- and to save
all of Los Angels from a deadly hazard. |
