About this deal

The two must put aside old resentments to work together again and close in on a dangerous killer. If you're using a washing machine, we reccomend washing on gentle and hanging dry. Harry Bosch is top of the list of investigators Ballard wants to recruit. The Desert Star Pendant - a new design with a gorgeous centre gemstone with sparkling Cubic Zirkonia that reflect the night sky. WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU KNEW WHO DID IT? Mon: closedTue: 10am-6pmWed: 10am-6pmThu: 10am-9pmFri: 10am-9pmSat: 10am-6pm Stone size: 7x9mm Hand washing is always reccomended for our soft and delicate pieces. For years, Harry Bosch has been working a case that haunts him but that he hasn't been able to crack - the murder of an entire family by a psychopath who still walks free. Yet, after the chief of police himself tells her she can write her ticket within the department, Ballard takes back her badge, leaving 'the Late Show' to rebuild the cold case unit at the elite Robbery-Homicide Division.

Reviews

Acton

Personally I would prefer Bosch on his own but it is obvious that Connelly intends on Ballard (and perhaps his daughter Maddie) taking center stage at some point in the future. I read most of the book in one mammoth late night/early morning binge because I couldn't close the book. Looking forward to reading Connelly's decision on Bosch or whether the other characters he developed will jump to the head of the line.

Fans of Bosch will love this book. Desert Star is a thrilling page turner of a Bosch/Ballard crime story.

It appears the author is testing public opinion. The book was also interesting with the introduction of DNA genealogy to solve cold cases [as was recently reported in Toronto, Ontario where police solved 2 40 year old murder cases] with this new and innovative investigative method. Having followed Bosch from the beginning with The Black Echo, both he and Connelly have aged accordingly. Every chapter left me dying to read the next one.

I've been a fan since The Black Echo and Desert Star is a worthy entry in the series. My bedtime reading! Bosch and/or Connelly is looking for a dramatic exit to his continued exploits by allowing him to finally solve his 'white whale'. The plot propels itself and there is zero fat or filler within the 400 pages.

Connelly's recent move allowed Bosch's visit to Florida from LA as part of the case . This novel concerns two open/unsolved murder cases and each one is riveting and exciting.
