This was my first James Patterson’s book, and will not be my last! Intricate and detailed story that doesn’t pull together until the very end. LOVED IT!

Predictable South
Reviewed: 05-15-24
The story was ok, if predictable and slightly boring. I may have enjoyed the book more had I read it, but the narrative was not believable. Especially “Desiree” who sounded like she was in an elocution class. Glad it’s over

For maverick LAPD homicide detective Harry Bosch, the body in the drainpipe at Mulholland Dam is more than another anonymous statistic.

From a dangerous maze of blind alleys to a daring criminal heist beneath the city, his survival instincts will once again be tested to their limit.

Terrible Narration
Reviewed: 03-13-24
I tried to listen to this book, and it may have been a good story - but the narration was so bad I couldn't stay past the first few chapters. For one thing, if you want a Texas accent, hire a real Texan. Sounded like robots reading the lines.
