A Harry Bosch novel. Harry Bosch is a LAPD Homicide Detective, who is assigned the job of investigating the murder of a Lawyer who was suing the LAPD and about to go to trial. The Lawyer was black and the cops he was investigating and suing were white and the black community is convinced that a white cop killed the Lawyer. Racial tensions are high, the black community is demanding justice, meaning that a white cop be charged with the crime. The investigation takes many strange turns and twists.
This was my first Harry Bosch novel, but it won't be my last, I really enjoyed it.
