Fun read! It's been a while since I had a book interesting enough to keep me turning pages quickly but not so complex that I had trouble keeping up with plot and characters. My favorite sideline was Harry's discussion with Mattie about why he didn't want to eat at the Vietnamese restaurant. Mattie's preconceived idea of her dad's "racism" was right on the mark. I think she learned a whole lot about her dad thanks to this seemingly minor issue. Please keep up the interaction between Harry and Mickey, his "brother with another mother." They compliment each other so well, especially with Harry's straight shooter thinking bounced against Mickey's little bit of lawyer ambulance-chasing sleaziness. For some reason I never connected with Bella -- I felt like Harry's relationship with her was perfunctory. Although he said and did the right things for Bella, it didn't seem warm or genuine. Can't wait for the next book! ( )
Harry's cold case investigations are particularly enjoyable as the reader accompanies him on his treasure-hunt like journey chasing down clues and uncovering secrets.
While both of the cases in this installment are compelling, it is the search for the missing heir that really grabs the reader with the heartwrenching twists and turns. The second case focusing on the search for a brutal serial rapist is gripping, especially the final showdown. That said, there the revelation of the rapist's identity comes out of left field due to the lack of hints along the way.
Overall, this is another entertaining addition to the series. ( )

They charged from the cover of the elephant grass toward the L.Z., five of them swarming the slick on both sides, one among them yelling, "Go! Go! Go!" - as if each man needed to be prodded and reminded that these were the most dangerous seconds of their lives.

But it was a lopsided smile he knew he had seen before.

Detective Harry Bosch must track down someone who may never have existed in the new thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author Michael Connelly. Harry Bosch is California's newest private investigator. He doesn't advertise, he doesn't have an office, and he's picky about who he works for, but it doesn't matter. His chops from thirty years with the LAPD speak for themselves. Soon one of Southern California's biggest moguls comes calling. The reclusive billionaire is nearing the end of his life and is haunted by one regret. When he was young, he had a relationship with a Mexican girl, his great love. But soon after becoming pregnant, she disappeared. Did she have the baby? And if so, what happened to it? Desperate to know whether he has an heir, the dying magnate hires Bosch, the only person he can trust. With such a vast fortune at stake, Harry realizes that his mission could be risky not only for himself but for the one he's seeking. But as he begins to uncover the haunting storyâ??and finds uncanny links to his own pastâ??he knows he cannot rest until he finds the truth. At the same time, unable to leave cop work behind completely, he volunteers as an investigator for a tiny cash-strapped police department and finds himself tracking a serial rapist who is one of the most baffling and dangerous foes he has ever faced. Swift, unpredictable, and thrilling, The Wrong Side of Goodbye shows that Michael Connelly "continues to amaze with his consistent skill and sizzle" (Cleveland Plain Dealer).
