Description

LAPD Detective Harry Bosch tackles three tough cases that span a legendary career in this never-before-collected trio of stories.

In "Christmas Even," the case of a burglar killed in mid-heist leads Bosch to retrace a link to his past. In "Father's Day," Bosch investigates a young boy's seemingly accidental death and confronts his own fears as a father. In "Angle of Investigation," Bosch delves into one of the first homicides he ever worked back as a uniformed rookie patrolman, a case that was left unsolved for decades.

Together, these gripping stories span Bosch's controversial career at the LAPD, and show the evolution of the haunted, legendary investigator he would become. Utterly unputdownable, they are proof that "Connelly never stops doling out the suspense....Once it grabs you in those first few pages, it won't let go of you" (Boston Globe).

    Short stories without any substance.

    This was a book that although it showed the authors style of writing and featured the main characters that ha been written about in almost all of his books. It was an easy read, and left no questions in the readers mind that this character was featured in most of the published books from the author. I would recommend it only to get used to the style of writing that is delivered in each and every book.

    Good writing as usual but terribly disappointing to be left hanging on third story. I anxiously turned the page only to find advertisements for other books. Where is the end of this story? Annoys me.

    Not much meat on these bones. Disappointing to pay this much for three very short stories. Most of the material was a teaser for another book they are trying to sell
