Summary
Confronted by his own tragic past when the bones of a twelve-year-old boy are found in the Hollywood Hills, Harry Bosch attempts to unearth the boy's identity, which leads to startling discoveries and the possible destruction of his career.
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
On New Year's Day, detective Harry Bosch fields a call that a dog has found a bone that is believed to be human—a chance discovery that leads him to evidence of a murder committed more than twenty years earlier. Digging through police reports and hospital records, and tracking down street kids and runaways from the 1970s, Bosch finds a family ripped apart by an absence and a trail into a violent, terrifying world. As the case takes him deeper into the past, and he fights to keep control in a lawless and brutal showdown, the investigation races to a shocking conclusion and leaves Bosch on the brink of an unimaginable decision. Harry Bosch recibe la orden de acudir a visitar a un doctor que insiste en que ha encontrado un hueso humano cuando paseaba con su perra por las colinas de Hollywood. Acompañado de un equipo de antropólogos forenses, Bosch descubre que el hueso pertenece al esqueleto de un niño que fue asesinado casi tres décadas atrás. Despierta no sólo la conmoción general, sino un inusitado interés dentro del propio equipo de investigadores. A Bosch no le gusta un asunto que, más allá de las típicas complicaciones policiales, denota claros paralelismos con su propia infancia tortuosa. En este escenario, Harry Bosch, cansado de esta lucha que parece no tener fin, tomará una drástica decisión vital.
