Night Fire

Harry Bosch joins forces with LAPD Detective Renée Ballard once more to delve into a murder case that had captivated Bosch's mentor, the man responsible for his training. This revitalizing story comes from Michael Connelly, a #1 New York Times bestselling author. Years ago, when Harry Bosch began his career as a homicide detective, he was guided by a mentor who ingrained in him the importance of personal investment in each case and igniting a relentless drive. That influential mentor, John Jack Thompson, has recently passed away. After his funeral, his widow presents Bosch with a murder book Thompson had taken with him upon leaving the LAPD two decades prior. The book details the unresolved murder of a troubled young man in a drug-related alley. Bosch approaches Renée Ballard, seeking her assistance in uncovering what initially sparked Thompson's fervor for this particular case. Together, Bosch and Ballard form a powerful investigative partnership, but they soon confront a disturbing dilemma: Did Thompson remove the murder book to solve it during his retirement, or did he do so to ensure it remained unsolved?
