Summary
Summary
Audie Award Winner for Best Mystery Novel Narration
Detective Harry Bosch has retired from the LAPD, but his half-brother, defense attorney Mickey Haller, needs his help. The murder rap against his client seems ironclad, but Mickey is sure it's a setup. Though it goes against all his instincts, Bosch takes the case. With the secret help of his former LAPD partner Lucia Soto, he turns the investigation inside the police department. But as Bosch gets closer to discovering the truth, he makes himself a target.
Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“A classic whodunit…an extra treat for the reader is being able to follow the case from the dual perspectives of the prosecution and the defense…Brothers Bosch and Haller may be, but at times they seem a lot like an ego and its id.” —New York Times Book Review
“Intensely satisfying and featuring two of the smartest creations in modern crime fiction, this is as elegant a masterpiece as Connelly has delivered.” —Daily Mail (London)
“Connelly continues to write quality crime fiction, and The Crossing is another great character study mixed with a truly baffling puzzle.” —Associated Press
“As always with a Bosch novel, the delight is in the ‘inside police’ details….What Bosch does discover in The Crossing…should keep him busy—and Connelly fans happy—for years to come.” —Washington Post
“Harry is back in his groove…Finding the connections between the parts of the case…gives readers Harry at his best. We get the bonus of seeing Mickey take that case to court for one of his bravura performances.” —Tampa Bay Times
“Titus Welliver does an excellent job narrating. His crisp reading is fast paced and keeps the listener engaged. He brings out Harry Bosch’s laidback personality and his thoughtful analysis of the facts.” —Library Journal (audio review)
“Narrator Titus Welliver’s strong, deep voice carries the plot as Connelly’s two great protagonists…team up. Connelly displays his usual encyclopedic knowledge of California criminal procedure and Los Angeles geography in another gripping thriller. The villains are horrifying, the murders are kinky, and the courtroom scenes are beautifully rendered. Welliver’s pace is consistent and easy to follow. He talks like a tough guy without being a caricature…A solid performance.” —AudioFile
“Harry Bosch’s visit to the dark side, from retired cop to Lincoln Lawyer Mickey Haller’s investigator, makes for fascinating reading.” —RT Book Reviews (4½ stars)
