Synopsis

Book by Michael Connelly

A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

Connelly's plots are never straightforward, and he keeps us guessing until the exciting and bitter conclusion to this latest episode in a splendid series (SUNDAY TELEGRAPH)

Connelly has produced another blindingly good plot which, mixed with spellbinding action, takes us deep into a corrupt world. Not for the first time do we discover that there is a very fine line indeed between criminals and the police. This is crime thriller writing of the highest order (GUARDIAN)

Admirers of Connelly's Bosch novels will know that his depiction of his dedicated hero always has the ring of authenticity. And, amid the excitements of his vertiginous plot, Connelly takes the time to consider whether Harry's determination to get his man is worth the sacrifices he makes (DAILY TELEGRAPH)

This is Connelly doing what he does best: delivering a beautifully structured, richly atmospheric crime novel (THE EXPRESS)

Michael Connelly writes remarkably pure police procedurals ... he specialises in taut plots, beautifully constructed, full of missable clues and surprising switchbacks. Echo Park is a virtuoso performance. ... there are bent politicians and lawyers at work: Bosch is headed down a tunnel. Impossible not to follow.' (David Sexton EVENING STANDARD & LONDON LITE)

Connelly specialises in taut plots, beautifully constructed, full of missable clues and surprising switchbacks. This is a virtuso effort. (Catherine Shoard THE SCOTSMAN)

Présentation de l'éditeur :

In 1993 Marie Gesto disappeared after walking out of a supermarket. Harry Bosch worked the case but couldn't crack it, and the twenty-two-year-old was never found. Now, more than a decade later, with the Gesto file still on his desk, Bosch gets a call from the District Attorney.A man accused of two heinous murders is willing to come clean about several others, including the killing of Marie Gesto. Taking the confession of the man he has sought-and hated-for thirteen years is bad enough. Discovering that he missed a clue back in 1993 that could have stopped nine other murders may just be the straw that breaks Harry Bosch.
