Publisher's Summary

This pulse-quickening thriller from master of suspense Michael Connelly sees Harry Bosch plunged into the dangerous world of international terrorism.

When a physicist is murdered in Los Angeles, it seems the killer has no fear of publicity, leaving the body on The Overlook, a site with a stunning view over the city. And when it's discovered that the victim turned over a quantity of a lethal chemicals to his killer before he died, Harry knows he has more than just a single death to worry about.

Alongside the forces of US Homeland Security, Harry realizes he must solve the murder - or face unimaginable consequences.

Disappointing

It was good, but less so than other Harry Bosch books. Well read - and enjoyable aspect. But I somehow felt the storyline was a bit lame. I was not drawn into the web of characters like I have been in the past.
