Amazon.com description: Product Description: Despues de aclararse el desastre policial de Echo Park, Harry Bosch ha dejado Casos Abiertos y pertenece a la unidad Especial de Homicidios; tiene nuevo jefe, Larry Gandle; y nuevo companero, Iggy Ferras. A medianoche, mientras escucha un disco de jazz en la oscuridad, recibe la llamada para investigar el primer caso en su nuevo destino. El Doctor Santely Kent ha sido hallado muerto en el mirador sobre el pantano de Mulholland. Cuando el detective llega al lugar, encuentra a dos personas conocidas: Jerry Edgar, su antiguo companero en Homicidios de Hollywood; y Rachel Walling, agente del FBI y antigua amante suya. Pronto Harry Bosch se irrita porque Rachel tiene mas informacion que el sobre el caso: el Doctor era especialista en medicina nuclear y hay sospechas de que ha sido robado material radiactivo. En efecto, las primeras investigaciones confirman que treinta y dos capsulas de cesio han desaparecido de un hospital y todo apunta al terrorismo islamista. El FBI intenta apoderarse de la investigacion, pero Bosch nunca se ha dejado apartar de uno de sus casos. / In his first case since he left the LAPD's Open Unsolved Unit for the prestigious Homicide Special squad, Harry Bosch is called out to investigate a murder that may have chilling consequences for national security. A doctor with access to a dangerous radioactive substance is found murdered in the trunk of his car. Retracing his steps, Harry learns that a large quantity of radioactive cesium was stolen shortly before the doctor's death. With the cesium in unknown hands, Harry fears the murder could be part of a terrorist plot to poison a major American city. Soon, Bosch is in a race against time, not only against the culprits, but also against the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI (in the form of Harry's one-time lover Rachel Walling), who are convinced that this case is too important for the likes of the LAPD. It is Bosch's job to prove all of them wrong.
