The vision has haunted him for four years--a young woman lying crumpled in death, her hand outstretched in silent supplication. Harry Bosch was taken off the Angella Benton murder case when the production assistant's death was linked with the violent theft of two million dollars from a movie set. Both files were never closed. Now retired from the L.A.P.D., Bosch is determined to find justice for Angella. Without a badge to open doors and strike fear into the guilty, he's on his own. And even in the face of an opponent more powerful and ruthless than any he's ever encountered, Bosch is not backing down.Present Out Of Books Lost Light (Harry Bosch #9)

It's been several months since Harry Bosch retired from his job as a homicide detective in Los Angeles. He's attempting to adjust to life as a civilian, but he can't resist when another former cop mentions a cold case they'd both worked on. Angella Benton was strangled in the entrance to her apartment building. Just as Bosch was beginning to investigate, the heist of two million dollars from a movie set gave the case a bigger profile, and the robbery homicide division took it over. Four yearsThis book was grim. It looks at a post 9/11 world and how many will just make excuses in the name of keeping our country safe. It also shows how trying to do the right thing could leave you in a hole in the ground dead. Now that Bosch is no longer with the LAPD (read "City of Bones") he is investigating a cold case that has haunted him for years. A young woman working on a film set was found dead and half naked on her front steps. It seems that her death may be linked to a possible robbery of $2
This is the ninth Harry Bosch novel and it marks a big turning point in his life as he has left the police force. During the course of the book he begins working as a private investigator which actually suits him better because he is a man who likes to work alone. I enjoyed this one very much largely because Harry is always in control. He continually outwits his opponents who include members of the FBI and the police. When he finally solves the case the reader breathes easily again and then
The former LAPD homicide detective has moved on to the next phase of his life, but has not departed from his true character. Bosch takes us through another web of intrigue. It's such fun watching him sift through evidence and picking up up clues that ultimately solve a case. Harry is a PI this go round and doesn't have the luxury of a badge. That doesn't slow him down any. Many twists to the storyline with the many characters involved. Truly love reading about Harry Bosch. One of my favorite
This time last year I hadnt even read a Michael Connelly novel (shocking, I know), and I now cite him as one of my favourite authors and Harry Bosch as one of my favourite characters of all-time. This being the ninth book, and with Harry having left the LAPD at the end of the last story, I wondered what was next for this enigmatic and truly brilliant character. If I had to describe Lost Light in terms of where it fits into this series, Id say it reads like a filler novel. It was intriguing to
Not one of the Bosch series has earned less than four stars from me but this entry managed to earn a fifth star for a few unexpected twists in both Boschs investigation and his personal life. The ninth book of this superbly written crime procedural finds Bosch on the other side of the LAPD, FBI, Homeland Security and a few really bad guys. No rest for this retired detective. Haunted by a case that got away, Bosch pulls out all the stops to solve the murder of a young movie production assistant.
LOST LIGHT is book #9 in the Harry Bosch series. Harry is no longer with the L.A. Police Dept., but he is still pursuing a cold case, the murder four years ago of a young woman named Angella Benton. Without a badge, Bosch must undergo the humiliation of having doors slammed in his face. Benton was employed as a production assistant by Alexander Taylor, a producer of blockbuster action films, and the opening scene is a stunning display of Taylor's arrogance. Harry was on the set of one of
