Publisher's Summary

Angels Flight adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience!*

Booktrack editions are essentially a new genre of digital storytelling entertainment. Music and ambient audio are added to complement and enhance the audiobook experience. It is a synchronized movie-style soundtrack that complements the narration of existing audiobooks; the tempo and rhythm of the score harmonize with action, dialogue and the characters' emotional arcs.

The New York Times best seller that inspired the new season of hit original drama series BOSCH.

Detective Harry Bosch is on a harrowing journey into a high-profile murder case - and darkness...

An activist attorney is killed in a cute little L.A. trolley called Angels Flight, far from Harry Bosch's Hollywood turf. But the case is so explosive - and the dead man's enemies inside the LAPD are so numerous - that it falls to Harry to solve it. Now the streets are super heating. Harry's year-old Vegas marriage is unraveling. And the hunt for a killer is leading Harry to another high-profile L.A. murder case, one where every cop had a motive. The question is, did any have the guts?

*Booktrack is an immersive format that pairs traditional audiobook narration to complementary music. The tempo and rhythm of the score are in perfect harmony with the action and characters throughout the audiobook. Gently playing in the background, the music never overpowers or distracts from the narration, so listeners can enjoy every minute. When you purchase this Booktrack edition, you receive the exact narration as the traditional audiobook available, with the addition of music throughout.

Great story

Not a fan of the production of the audiblebook or the first time with this new reader.

Awful narration

I really loved Dick Hill’s narration and was truly disappointed in this reading. The pronunciation of some words, and reading style was truly off-putting and I just couldn’t bring myself to continue listening. I decided life is too short and moved on.

Nope.

I listened to the first five Bosch books and loved them. This book I can't handle. Background music, bad narrator tone. Wish I could return it.

Terrible soundtrack

The soundtrack is irritating. It detracts from an excellent story and actually detracts from the overall enjoyment of the book. Better to have an actor read it with adequate expression.

Horrible music!

I'm up to chapter 7 and the 'music' (for want of a better label) has not stopped. Constant distraction. Some people don't hear it, I guess. There are others of those who use their ears. In performances, such as TV ... movies... the editor matches the music to the scene. Here, it's just plain distracting sh*t. I hope whoever decided on this background gets to read this complaint. What could they have been thinking??

Please... no background music.

get the other version

The music added to this book is ridiculous, doesn't go with the story. I noticed there was a version without "booktrack", get that one.

The narrator reads this book like a cross between Unsolved Mysteries and a used car salesman.

I don't think I'll buy another one with this narrator. The narrator in previous books was actually really good....

Well the computer related stuff pretty off. yes it is dated, but even for the time it is off base, with incorrect terminology. Even if you take out the incorrect technical issues, the logic around that part of the story is weak, I mean why not just password protect the site instead of a ip whitelist, or why not just block non whitelisted IPs. Usually Connely doesn't have big holes like this, but he was clearly out of his element here...

Still another great Bosch book.

Crappy Music

The constant music in the background did nothing to enhance the enjoyment of the story and was very annoying.
