Harry Bosch is back folks. The bull in a china shop Los Angeles Police Department bad boy detective is back in  business. He has a murder to solve. The owner of a liquor store was gunned down. It looks like the work of a Triad. Triads are Chinese organized crime syndicates who specialize in protection schemes. They get violent when the payments are made.<\/p>\n

There is a few things that make Harry wonder about it. But Harry is a man of action not thought. He likes to keep things moving. Those that sit and ponder, are wimps. Plus it looks like the Triad is making things personal. Very personal. You don’t mess around with Harry. You especially don’t make it personal. So Harry has to make a whirlwind trip to Hong Kong to straighten out his personal affairs. Those Chinese guys find out that they made a big mistake with Harry.<\/p>\n

He comes back and resumes his murder investigation. Oops, uh, Harry made some mistakes. Maybe he should have done a little more thinking.<\/p>\n

Doesn’t matter, Harry straightens everything out but his life is changed. He has to take care of his teenage daughter now. Oops, can’t just chase after bad guys any more. You gotta make sure that somebody is picking up the kid. What’s he going to do. We’ll see with next book.<\/p>\n

This is a great action detective novel. I give it 2.5 stars out of 4. Good, but not great.<\/p>\n
