Terrence McCaleb is asked by the LAPD to help them investigate a series of murders that has them baffled. They are the kind of ritualized killings that McCaleb specialized in solving with the FBI, and he is reluctantly drawn away from his peaceful new life and back into the horror and excitement of tracking down a homicidal maniac. More horrifying still, the suspect who seems to fit the profile that McCaleb develops is someone he has known and worked with in the past -- Detective Harry Bosch

Another fantastic book in the Bosch series.

A murderer has been killed himself. The investigator thinks that the killer will attack again but this case is at a stand-still. She persuades former criminal profiler,Terry McCaleb to come back after his recovery from a heart transplant. McCaleb works on the case and finds the clues that lead him straight to Bosch. Has Harry Bosch finally decided to take matters into his own hands and deal out his own kind of justice?

Bosch is very busy helping the DA to get a conviction on a high profile Hollywood producer. The producer loves to choke women while having sex with them. Bosch ends up approaching McCaleb to help him get out of this jamb.

This is a great mystery. This series just keeps on getting better and better

Reading now.

Two of Connelly's characters from different series come together in this novel to create quite a gripping story. Terry McCaleb is an ex-FBI agent who retired from the agency after a heart operation and the birth of his baby girl. Detective Harry Bosch is with the LAPD and in the middle of a huge trial, trying to convict a Hollywood producer of murdering a woman.

McCaleb gets a call from an old colleague working a murder case to come up with a profile of the killer. McCaleb finds some points that the lead investigator misses and all roads point to Bosch. Bosch can't afford to be in the spotlight for a murder investigation because he is the star witness against the Hollywood producer.

This is another great book in the Bosch series. I really enjoyed McCaleb too, even though I hadn't read any of Connelly's books with McCaleb as the main character. I think the two characters would have made for a great partnership. Looking forward to the next book in the series!

Arrived safely - thanks

EDITED 23RD MAY: Excellent plotline with two of the main characters forced to work together despite one being the suspect. Some wonderfully clever twists, and of course the surprise ending we always expect from the author.

I'm having a clear out so am sending this book, along with lots of others, to my local RSPCA charity shop.
