Harry Bosch and Detective Ballard join forces again. When he was a rookie Homicide detective, Harry Bosch had a mentor who taught him to take his job personally and ignite the flame of tenacity so he wouldn't leave a case unsolved: John Jack Thompson. He has died, but after his funeral, his widow gives Bosch the report of a murder that Thompson took with him when he left the LAPD 20 years ago: the open case of the murder of a troubled young man in an alley. used for drug deals. Bosch shows the report to Renée Ballard and asks for her help in figuring out why the case piqued Thompson's interest so many years ago. That will be your starting point. Bosch and Ballard become a formidable research team and their bond grows closer. And soon a troubling question arises: Did Thompson steal the report to work on the case in his retirement, or to make sure it was never resolved?
