First of all, I want to say I couldn't put this book down, the plot grabbed me and held my attention to the very end. I also want to say that the storyline was fresh and entertaining mediocre. The Black Box is one of Harry Bosch's best cases. A woman is found shot to death in an alley during the Rodney King riots. She is a Scandinavian photographer and journalist. Years later the gun which killed her surfaces. It has been used to kill several other people. Harry investigates, seeking to close a cold case. On the face of it this is a straightforward novel, but the skills required for its execution are considerable. Connelly takes us through Bosch's thoughts and procedures, at eye level. We see what he sees and we learn how and why he attempts to solve the case in the manner that he chooses. In some ways, detective stories simply involve going from one person to the next, asking questions and piecing together a complex puzzle. That is true, in general terms, for The Black Box. The enormity of the task, however, is such that we are drawn into the case, wondering how on earth Harry will do what Harry does. I will say that if you want to read a good murder mystery that will have you sitting on the edge of your seat; waiting for the other shoe to drop, then I recommend "The Black Box.
