About this listen
Hieronymus "Harry" Bosch is up to his neck in a case that has transfixed all of celebrity-mad Los Angeles: a movie director is charged with murdering an actress during sex, and then staging her death to make it look like a suicide. Bosch is both the arresting officer and the star witness in a trial that has brought the Hollywood media pack out in full-throated frenzy.
Meanwhile, Terry McCaleb is enjoying an idyllic retirement on Catalina Island when a visit from an old colleague brings his former world rushing back. It's a murder, the unreadable kind of murder he specialized in solving back in his FBI days. The investigation has stalled, and the sheriff's office is asking McCaleb to take a quick look at the murder book to see if he turns up something they've missed.
McCaleb's first reading of the crime scene leads him to look for a methodical killer with a taste for rituals and revenge. As his quick look accelerates into a full-sprint investigation, the two crimes - his murdered loner and Bosch's movie director - begin to overlap strangely. With one unsettling revelation after another, they merge, becoming one impossible, terrifying case, involving almost inconceivable calculation. McCaleb believes he has unmasked the most frightening killer ever to cross his sights. But his investigation tangles with Bosch's lines, and the two men find themselves at odds in the most dangerous investigation of their lives.

Good listen.
Understand why narratir had to use two distinct voices fot Terry and Harry but Harry sounded so gruff, so different from the Harry in other books.
overall though did not take away from the story. thoroughly enjoyed this book.

Quality 'Crossover' Of Sorts
This engrossing mystery is largely a Terry McCaleb investigation, but Harry Bosch is integral to the tale, Jack McEvoy (from the 'Poet' books) makes an appearance, and even Mickey Haller (the 'Lincoln Lawyer') is mentioned. This book incorporates virtually all of Michael Connelly's protagonists in some form or another - 'A Darkness More Than Night' is a real treat for Connelly fans.
Don't worry. Those unfamiliar with Connelly's previous efforts are offered a quality twisty Crime Thriller, too (you don't need to know those characters in order to enjoy this whodunit). Retired FBI Profiler Terry McCaleb is asked to help with the hopelesly stalled murder investigation of a known scumbag - while LAPD Homicide Detective Harry Bosch testifies in a straight-out-of-the-headlines sensational "Trial Of The Century". LA Times/Fair Warning reporter Jack McEvoy gets involved in twisting the two cases together and Connelly brings us to a pulse-pounding climax.
Hachette Audio does a very nice job bringing this story to the Audiobook audience. Sound quality is admirable and Richard M. Davidson gives a performance with excellent diction, spot-on timbre/cadence/tone, and notable voice-acting.
Takin in toto, this recording rates 9.5 stars out of 10. Fans of Mystery-Thrillers in general and Michael Connelly fans in particular shouldn't hesitate to spend the Credit.

Best Bosch Yet
After the Black Echo this is Bosch’s best story. The narrator is not my favourite, but the story is incredible. Love the addition of Terry McCaleb.

Not my favourite
I had hard time getting into this one as the narrator’s voice for Bosch was just awful. Sounded like an 80 year old drunk. Sadly this thru off the entire book for me, not too mention it was more about the secondary character than Bosch.

Trope heavy, great finish [SPOILER]
Love the series, just felt like the author was relying too heavily on the same storyline for Bosch, the conspiracy to make him look guilty was good once or twice, but this felt played out. Love the addition of the new character, and other viewpoint in the story. Narrator was good, consistent.
