Michael Connelly

The last coyote

Rahma Ali

Being a Harry Bosch series fan, this book is my favorite so far. In this entry, Connelly reveals one of Harry's most important incidents that shaped his life and career, the murder of his mother. The book events and encounters are dark and emotional as we see Harry's past cut through him, leaving a beautiful and meaningful story that adds much depth to the characters in the books that come after in the series.

LAPD detective Harry Bosch is down on his luck - his house is condemned in the aftermath of the earthquake, his girlfriend has left him and he has been suspended for attacking his superior officer. To occupy time, he examines the old case files covering a murder which took place on October 28, 1961. The victim was Marjorie Phillips Lowe - his mother . . . The case forces Bosch to confront the demons of the past, and as he digs deeper into the case, he discovers a trail of cover-ups that lead to the high-ups in the Hollywood Hills . . .

Slightly weaker than the last bunch but boy does it pick up in the end. A better editor could have helped the book, made it a bit leaner and meaner perhaps.

La vida de Harry Bosh es un desastre. Su novia le ha abandonado, su casa se halla en un estado ruinoso tras haber sufrido los efectos de un terremoto, y él está bebiendo demasiado. Bosch se resiste a ver al médico asignado por la policía de Los Ángeles, pero finalmente acaba reconociendo que un hecho trágico del pasado continúa interfiriendo en su presente.
En 1961, cuando tenía once años, su madre, una prostituta, fue brutalmente asesinada. El caso fue repentinamente cerrado y nadie fue inculpado por el crimen. Bosch decide reabrirlo buscando, si no justicia, al menos respuestas que apacigüen la inquietud que le ha embargado durante años.
