Harry Bosch is facing the end of the line. He's been put on the DROP — Deferred Retirement Option Plan — and given three years before his retirement is enforced. Seeing the end of the mission coming, he's anxious for cases. He doesn't have to wait long. First a cold case gets a DNA hit for a rape and murder which points the finger at a 29-year-old convicted rapist who was only eight at the time of the murder. Then a city councilman's son is found dead — fallen or pushed from a hotel window — and he insists on Bosch taking the case despite the two men's history of enmity. The cases seem to be unrelated; one leads to the discovery of a killer operating in the city for as many as three decades, the other to a deep political conspiracy that reached back into the dark history of the police department...

In tough times, even the criminals are making cut-backs, it seems. Right now, the most significant part of defence lawyer Mickey Haller's business is not about keeping clients out of jail but about keeping a roof over their heads, as the foreclosure industry booms. Lisa Trammel had been a client of Mickey's for eight months, and although so far he'd managed to stop the bank from taking her house, the strain and sense of injustice are beginning to take their toll, and the bank had recently got a restraining order to prevent her protesting against their fraudulent practices. But now the bank's CEO has been found with a bullet in his brain, and Lisa is about to be indicted for murder. For Mickey, it's back to what he does best on the biggest stage of all, but if he thought defending Lisa Trammel was going to be a walk in the park, he'd be wrong. Not only is he about to learn some startling truths about his client, but also about himself, and by the time the verdict is in, Mickey's whole world will have been turned upside down.

Brutalités, racisme, corruption… Howard Elias, le défenseur des droits civiques et de la communauté noire, s’est fait une spécialité de traîner la police de Los Angeles devant les tribunaux. Quand il est retrouvé, assassiné, dans le funiculaire de l’Angels Flight, à la veille d’un procès, c’est Harry Bosch qui est chargé de l’enquête. Une nouvelle fois, après le passage à tabac de Rodney King, et les émeutes qui ont suivi l’acquittement des policiers impliqués, le pays va avoir les yeux fixés sur Los Angeles où tout faux pas risque d’embraser les quartiers noirs.Ce flic aux méthodes de privé, ombrageux voire asocial, peu respectueux de la hiérarchie mais pétri du sens de l'honneur, s'inscrit dans la grande tradition des poor lonesome cow-boys urbains façon Marlowe ou Scudder. Sabrina Champenois, Libération.

This №1 bestselling legal thriller from Michael Connelly is a stunning display of novelistic mastery — as human, as gripping, and as whiplash-surprising as any novel yet from the writer Publishers Weekly has called today's Dostoevsky of crime literature. Mickey Haller is a Lincoln Lawyer, a criminal defense attorney who operates out of the backseat of his Lincoln Town Car, traveling between the far-flung courthouses of Los Angeles to defend clients of every kind. Bikers, con artists, drunk drivers, drug dealers — they're all on Mickey Haller's client list. For him, the law is rarely about guilt or innocence, it's about negotiation and manipulation. Sometimes it's even about justice. A Beverly Hills playboy arrested for attacking a woman he picked up in a bar chooses Haller to defend him, and Mickey has his first high-paying client in years. It is a defense attorney's dream, what they call a franchise case. And as the evidence stacks up, Haller comes to believe this may be the easiest case of his career. Then someone close to him is murdered and Haller discovers that his search for innocence has brought him face-to-face with evil as pure as a flame. To escape without being burned, he must deploy every tactic, feint, and instinct in his arsenal — this time to save his own life.

May 1992, and after four LAPD officers were acquitted after the savage beating of Rodney King, Los Angeles is ablaze. As looting and burning take over the city, law and order are swept away in a tidal wave of violence. But under threat of their lives, homicide detectives like Harry Bosch are still stubbornly trying to do their job. With no effective police presence on the streets, murder just got a whole lot easier — and investigating them got a whole lot harder. When Harry finds the body of a female journalist in an alley he is forced to hand over the case to the Riot Crimes Task Force, knowing that it will never be solved. Twenty years later, new evidence confirms her death was not a case of random violence but something much more personal. This time Harry is determined that the killer isn't going to escape — even if it means stepping back into the darkest days of the city he loves...

But four years later, Norman Church's widow is taking Bosch to court, accusing him of killing the wrong man. To make matters worse, Bosch has just received a note, eerily reminiscent of the ones the Dollmaker used to taunt him with, giving him a location where a body can be found. Is the Dollmaker still alive? Or is this the work of a vicious copycat killer, determined to repeat the Dollmaker's grisly feats and destroy Bosch's career in the process?

But as a new trial date is set, it starts to look like he's been set up. Mickey and Harry are going to have to dig deep into the past and find the truth about what really happened to the victim all those years ago.

Now he lives a quiet life, nursing his new heart and restoring the boat on which he lives in Los Angeles Harbor. Although he isn’t looking for any excitement, when Graciela Rivers asks him to investigate her sister Gloria’s death, her story hooks him immediately: the new heart beating in McCaleb’s chest is Gloria’s. As McCaleb investigates the evidence in the case, the suspected randomness of the crime gives way to an unsettling suspicion of a twisted intelligence behind the murder.

It also won the Anthony Award and Macavity Award for Best Novel of 1998.
