One of the better Bosch books--leaves you guessing. (  ) stickersthatmatter | May 29, 2023 |  In this crossover book of Harry Bosch (Book 7) and the Terry McClain series (Book 2), A Darkness More Than Night is Michael Conley at his best. With a crime that rocks Hollywood — a hot shot director is accused of murdering a starlet during a sexual encounter — this is a storyline that the Prime series has used as a blueprint for a series…with many changes. With both old and new nemeses, Bosch is constantly fghting against the criminal element as well as the upper echelon of the police department. Someone always has it in for him. But this time he's in the sights for the crime of murder as a suspect himself. The perfect thing about Bosch is he cares about the crime and the victim. Career politics doesn’t enter in his mindset, that puts him at odds with the “Brass” as well as the perps. He only cares about solving crimes and the victims. That makes him an epic hero on an epic journey. Recommend? I recommend this book to everyone who loves the series on television and with a love of police procedurals. There is enough backstory in the novel so that you do not have to read the books before, but it's helpful. This review appeared on my website. Disclaimer I received via the OverDrive/Libby app from the Harris County Library system. It was read as a Kindle eBook. (  ) Deena-Rae | Mar 28, 2023 | I had mixed feelings on this one. The plot was good, but I just didn't like either Bosch or McCaleb by the end of it. Just a little too dark. (  ) AliceAnna | Feb 26, 2023 | I wonder how Bosch managed to not bash McCaleb, who had accused him of a crime he didn't commit. He reacted in a way most people wouldn't, by asking McCaleb to find the real murderer and clear him. They ended up saving each other's lives. And this is where the book got more interesting and the two parallel plots came together. Among the two main characters, I like Bosch more. McCaleb is smart but quite unlikeable. He reacted angrily when the case was taken away from him. But he had no right to it in the first place. ( ) siok | Feb 17, 2023 | Harry Bosch participa como testigo en un juicio en el que se acusa a un director de cine del asesinato de una actriz.Mientras tanto, Terry McCaleb recibe la visita de una antigua compañera de trabajo que solicita su ayuda en la resolución de un caso dificil. McCaleb, reticente en un principio a abandonar su idilico retiro en la isla de Catlaina, no puede reprimir sus ganas de recuperar su vida anterior. El asesinato que ahora debe investigar es el tipo de homicidio complejo con los que trataba frecuentemente durante sus días en el FBI. Su primer examen del escenario del crimen le lleva en pos de un asésino metódico con un gusto por los rituales y la venganza: junto al cadaver de la victima han sido halladas la figura de una lechuza y un extraño mensaje en latín.

HTML:LAPD Detective Harry Bosch crosses paths with FBI profiler Terry McCaleb in the most dangerous investigation of their lives. Harry Bosch is up to his neck in a case that has transfixed all of celebrity-mad Los Angeles: a movie director is charged with murdering an actress during sex, and then staging her death to make it look like a suicide. Bosch is both the arresting officer and the star witness in a trial that has brought the Hollywood media pack out in full-throated frenzy. Meanwhile, Terry McCaleb is enjoying an idyllic retirement on Catalina Island when a visit from an old colleague brings his former world rushing back. It's a murder, the unreadable kind of murder he specialized in solving back in his FBI days. The investigation has stalled, and the sheriff's office is asking McCaleb to take a quick look at the murder book to see if he turns up something they've missed. McCaleb's first reading of the crime scene leads him to look for a methodical killer with a taste for rituals and revenge. As his quick look accelerates into a full-sprint investigation, the two crimes - his murdered loner and Bosch's movie director - begin to overlap strangely. With one unsettling revelation after another, they merge, becoming one impossible, terrifying case, involving almost inconceivable calculation. McCaleb believes he has unmasked the most frightening killer ever to cross his sights. But his investigation tangles with Bosch's lines, and the two men find themselves at odds in the most dangerous investigation of their lives. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
