It may be Black Friday, but we are here (10-6), with…

“Dark Sacred Night”, Michael Connelly’s second story with Renee Ballard  (“The Late Show”). Still on the night shift, she returns to the station to find a stranger rifling through files.  It’s Harry Bosch, working a cold case. She kicks him out, but then takes a look and gets drawn in. Publisher’s Weekly rates this a high spot [in Connelly’s] distinguished career.” 

Also new in paperback are three of Bosch’s earlier cases  ‘The Black Echo” introduces Bosch and long-term partner Eleanor Wish in a plot that takes him under the streets of LA; “The Black Ice” takes him south of the border in pursuit of a cop-killer; “Angel Flight” puts him in charge of a politically sensitive investigation.  This is catnip for completists.
