The Black Echo

Author: Michael Connelly

Detective Harry Bosch, haunted by his past as a Vietnam tunnel rat, finds himself investigating a murder that hits too close to home. The victim, a fellow veteran, is found dead in a drainpipe, echoing the claustrophobic tunnels of their shared war experience. As Bosch digs deeper, he uncovers a web of corruption and deceit that threatens to unravel his own fragile sense of justice. With each twist, Connelly masterfully blends gritty realism with heart-pounding suspense, leaving readers breathless until the very last page.

Everybody counts or nobody counts.
