More Harry Bosch!

Would you listen to The Reversal again? Why?
I'd listen to this book again - but not immediately. I'm a mystery/legal thriller addict and find that I can go back to many that I've enjoyed and re-listen. This is one with enough twists and interesting characters that I'll be back to it in the future.
Have you listened to any of Peter Giles’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I'm in the middle of listening to the Harry Bosch series and have become familiar with how the voices of the characters "should" sound. I liked this performance!
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Defense attorney crosses the aisle to retry a "cold" child murder, makes some key mistakes, but uses the best homicide investigator to unearth new clues.
Any additional comments?
Michael Connelly has a great series with Harry Bosch!

Story3.5 out of 5 stars 105
>A mom in her early fifties, Clover knows she no longer turns heads the way she used to, and she's only really missed when dinner isn't on the table on time. Then Clover wakes up one morning to discover she's invisible - truly invisible. She panics, but when her husband and son sit down to dinner, nothing is amiss. Even though she's been with her husband, Arthur, since college, her condition goes unnoticed. Her friend Gilda immediately observes that Clover is invisible, which relieves Clover immensely.

Are You Invisible?
Reviewed: 06-18-12
At a minimum, this is a very interesting take on being truly, literally invisible. What could you do? How would you dress - would you dress? How could you change the world? And, of course, there are also all the layers of questions about life and invisibility...to our family, our friends, strangers, ourselves. A great read!

A Great Story in Mystery Genre
Reviewed: 03-26-12
I love mysteries and had never read/listened to this one. It's likely the real beginning of the genre...smooth, lots of twists, great characters. An engrossing listen!
