Harry Bosch has retired from the LAPD. He's not sure what he wants to do but then he realizes that he now has the time and attention to devote to a case that has haunted him and was never solved. Four years ago, there was a bank robbery. During the robbery a woman who worked at the bank was shot and killed. The police who caught the case had walked into another situation a few weeks later at a bar and it left one of them dead, the other paralyzed for life and the case went cold.
Harry starts to nibble around the edges of the case and he soon realizes how different it is to work a case without his badge. An FBI agent had vanished a few months after the robbery and some believe that her disappearance was also connected. Whether or not that is true, the FBI and the LAPD top brass all want Bosch shut down and are willing to do whatever it takes to accomplish that. Can Harry solve the case?
This mystery is the ninth in the twenty Harry Bosch series. He is as determined as ever, singly focused on this one case and the woman who lost her life. He is divorced from his former FBI agent wife, Eleanor, but gets help from her when the case shifts to Las Vegas where she now lives. He still loves her and wonders if they could make things work now that he is retired. The case has lots of twists and readers will enjoy seeing how it all plays out. This book is recommended for mystery readers.
