Definitely one of my favourite Michael Connelly books read so far - this and the concrete blonde. Found myself truly absorbed in it.

3.25
Closer to a 3.25 than 3. Plodding writing at times. I listened to the audio book, and the narrator is the worst. Maybe one who can pronounce regular words and has a better tone. And, of course, a cop can not be tried and found guilty, even if he is because this society sees certain people of deserving any treatment they get no matter what the circumstances. Of course, the white man, no matter how open-minded he thinks he is, can see or understand why a people group not like him can still be angry about how the social- political- legal system can be unjust.
