" I’ve read eight other Bosch books and usually can’t get enough but was disappointed in this one. First, there’s something about narration of a screaming, anguished mother that, it’s probably my own personal quirk, but I found it cloying. And the kidnap of Bosch’s daughter in Asia die to the case he was working on in LA was just not believable for me. The Dad-Rescues-Daughter plot is overdone. It just wasn’t interesting to me the way his other books have been. "

" This is one of the best of Michael Connelly's Harry Bosch books. This one becomes very personal for Bosch. Like Heaven's Prisoners does for James Lee Burke's Dave Robicheaux, this is a watershed novel in the series and will impact the nature of every book which follows. "

" Another great read by this author.Can't go wrong with one of his books. "

" I picked this up on the "new" shelf at the library...I look forward to starting it. "

" Good and intriguing plot line but could've been chopped in half due to irrelevant details... "

" Really good book. I love the twists and turns and many different surprises of Harry Bosch's life. Poor guy cannot seem to catch a break! "

" excellent read. i like this author "

" I've always liked the Bosch books, although for a while I was a little tired of them. This book brought me back into the fold, although I did feel it was almost formulaic at times. The ending was interesting, or at least set up some interesting situations for following Bosch books. "

" Cracking good story. Couldn't put it down. What a pity Connelly is so prosaic. He 'tells' everything, and his sentences follow the same predictable structure. "

" Not good. I found myself yawning when his wife gets killed. "

" Michael Connelly has written another good Harry Bosch novel. Would recommend. "

" One of the Detective John Bosch series. I like a strong hero as main character. "

" A fine bit of pulp piffle. People die like crazy, including some people who probably wouldn't die in a more boilerplate thriller. Would make a fine John Woo movie, but they would probably have to add a flying boat on fire. "

" quick-moving, Harry Bosch is even more grumpy and difficult than usual, but this book will change his life and require him to soften up some. Enjoyed the cross-over with Mickey Haller, the "Lincoln Lawyer". "

" Another good read from Connelly! This one includes a fast-paced adventure in Hong Kong, and some interesting family twists along the way, including a cameo appearance by Mickey Haller near the end. "

" I like Harry Bosch and was happy to see a new entry. The chase through Hong Kong was well done and the ending means that there may be a new character who will complicate Harry's life in future installments. "

" This book was AWESOME!! Definitely keeps you on your toes and in suspense :) "

" I need to read some more Harry Bosch! "

" I love Harry Bosch. "

" Arrrgghhhhhh! "

" Ish, this one was a good read but triads and Hong Kong just didn't seem to suit Harry somehow. A little disappointing after The Scarecrow "

" Very good... Slightly predictable if you are a regular reader of this series or of mysteries in general but solid story telling to borrow a cliche. "

" Really fast paced & a fun book to ride along with. "

" Harry Bosch! Well, it is Harry Bosch. While I was addicted to it, I kind of felt that the end was like an "oh, yeah, the plot that I laid out for you was crap. sorry, reader, you suck." I was mad that it really didn't spell out the exact kidnapping action. "

" This book was really good. Bosch's life changes a lot by the end of the novel. It is a international crime/mystery that he has to solve in order to save his daughter's life. I would recommend this book to all Michael Connelly and Harry Bosch fans. Mickey Haller even has an appearance. "

" Since I am uneasy reading about kidnapped daughters, this was not my favorite Harry Bosch book. I found places in the plot that strained credulity, but I'll keep reading the series. "

" Un'altro grande romanzo di Connelly! Direi epocale apre molte porte alle future avventure di Harry Bosch "

" Made nme want to find the first one in the series "

" Piece of crap. Totally formulaic. Bosch totally let me down. The end is a complete waste. "

" I always, always, look forward to a Harry Bosch book. This one is a real game changer. Am not sure yet how I feel about my favorite detective's new life.... "

" Harry Bosch is working the murder of a Chinese shop-owner who was being bribed by a Chinese triad for protection money. When his daughter disappears in Hong Kong he flies to her rescue. Lots of twists and jumps in conclusions lead to a surprising ending. "

" Connelly at the top of his game; he's written a ton of books about Bosch and there hasn't been a drop-off in quality yet. Writers like Harlan Coben need to read more Connelly to see what works and what doesn't; he can take most other contemporary detective novelists to school any day of the week. "

" Very good book. Very interesting information on the Chinese culture. Kept my interest
all through the book. "

" Writing with accuracy (I presume!) about Hong Kong geography and writing with accuracy about Chinese people are entirely different things. What a bunch of nonsense. "

" Second time I have read this. A good read, though not one of his best. Author is best when he sticks to LA. Hong Kong setting came across as a bit travelogue at times. Would still recommend it. "

" Just finished this the other day. maybe my tastes are changing but I thought this was good and not great like city of bones, which I think is his best work- gritty & edgy! "

" Another great Harry Bosch mystery novel. This one shocked me at the end. The things some people do for their families is amazing. "

" First book I've read by Michael Connelly. I liked it but I probably should have started with an earlier book in the series. I think this one is 14 or something. "

" I am almost caught up!!! Woo hoo!! "

" It was ok but the worst conneelly ive read so far. "

" Michael Connelly is an author I like and this was an enjoyable read. Had hong Kong as part of the story which coincided with Daniel planning his first trip there. Donated the book because not one to read twice. "
