Representaion Conducive To Books The Closers (Harry Bosch #11)
Detective Harry Bosch is back with the LAPD with the sole mission of closing unsolved cases. The murder of a 16 year old girl in 1988 is his first file. A DNA match makes the case very much alive again, and it turns out to be anything but cold. The ripples from this death have destroyed at least two other lives, and everywhere he probes, Bosch finds hot grief, hot rage, and a bottomless well of betrayal and malice.In Los Angeles in 1988, a sixteen-year-old girl disappeared from her home and was later found dead of a gunshot wound to the chest. The death appeared at first to be a suicide - but some of the evidence contradicted that scenario, and detectives came to believe this was in fact a murder. Despite a by-the-book investigation, no one was ever charged.
Now Detective Harry Bosch is back with the LAPD with the sole mission of closing unsolved cases, and this girl's death is the first he's given. A DNA match makes the case very much alive again, and it turns out to be anything but cold. The ripples from this death have destroyed at least two other lives, and everywhere he probes, Bosch finds hot grief, hot rage, and a bottomless well of betrayal and malice.
And it's not just the girl's family and friends whose lives Bosch is stirring up afresh. With each new development, Harry Bosch finds increasing resistance from within the police force itself. Old enemies are close at hand. Even as he pushes relentlessly to find the truth, Bosch has to wonder if this assignment was intended to be his last. Digging up the past may heal old wounds-or it may expose new, searing ones.
From the mind of the man GQ has called "the best mystery writer in the world," The Closers is a masterpiece of thriller writing that is as sharp and immediate as the greatest fiction.
Also available as a Time Warner AudioBook, eBook and Large Print Edition.

After a renewed interest in finishing up the Bosch series, I read the Renée Ballard series, and then, newly inspired, I went back and started where I had left off. I've been enjoying my journey back into the Harry Bosch Universe, and this was no exception. It was pretty complex and had a lot of variety. It starts with Harry as he begins a new phase of his career in cold cases, one that had some DNA that had been obtained before thay were able to test it. The pistol used had a habit of pinching5 stars. Another awesome installment in this series. Harry Bosch is awesome and a lot happened in this book! Wow... wow... wow. I loved it and can't wait for the next book.
It's been awhile since I read a Connelly book. What took me so long to come back to this series? I love Harry Bosch! Great story, excellent characters and a nice twist at the end. Welcome back in to my life Mr. Connelly!

Another top notch mystery featuring my favorite LA detective, Harry Bosch. Bosch, newly returned to LAPD, has been assigned to the rejuvenated cold case unit and is once again partnered with Kiz Rider. Theyre assigned to a cold case which is heating up because of newly discovered DNA evidence. Its a great ride as Bosch cuts a few corners and makes a few deals (with his nemesis) to close their case. Yeah I guessed a few things in advance including the ending but its so well-written that it didnt

His first case is an unsolved murder of a 16 year old girl after new DNA evidence links the murder weapon to a suspect in the case. When Bosch begins to dig into the case, he finds many things that dont add up, including links to hate crimes. What Bosch finds is
