Story
For maverick LAPD homicide detective Harry Bosch, the body in the drainpipe at Mulholland Dam is more than another anonymous statistic. This one is personal...because the murdered man was a fellow Vietnam "tunnel rat" who had fought side by side with him in a hellish underground war. Now Bosch is about to relive the horror of Nam.

Great
This series, this author, this narrator, all are the best I have encountered. Really great stories, with not a single element missing. Never a dull moment, intelligently and artfully written. Nothing more to say.

Another gripping story
A story that is well paced - Peter May’s books are well suited to audio books. Good entertainment and the narrator is excellent but I think more suited to English narratives.
