I just finished reading The Night Fire, the latest detective novel by Michael Connelly. Once again long time Los Angeles detective Harry Bosch teams up with Renee Ballard, an L.A. police detective who works the night shift out of the Hollywood division. Bosch is now retired, and working cold cases in his spare time, and Ballard, with access to the resources of the police department, helps him out. In The Night Fire, Bosch is working both a cold case and a recent murder of a judge, while Ballard is helping with the cold case and also investigating the murder of a homeless man. Connelly is a very good writer, who always tells a good story, and this book is no exception. I would still be on the waiting list at the library for it, but Peter, my friend and former office mate at the Tattered Cover Bookstore, gave me an advanced reading copy, for which I am very grateful. As for the rest of you, you better put your name on the waiting list now. Thanks Peter!
