Harry Bosch crosses the line to team up with Lincoln Lawyer Mickey Haller in the new thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author Michael Connelly.Detective Harry Bosch has retired from the LAPD, but his half-brother, defense attorney Mickey Haller, needs his help. A woman has been brutally murdered in her bed and all evidence points to Haller's client, a former gang member turned family man. Though the murder rap seems ironclad, Mickey is sure it's a setup.Bosch doesn't want anything to do with crossing the aisle to work for the defense. He feels it will undo all the good he's done in his thirty years as a homicide cop. But Mickey promises to let the chips fall where they may. If Harry proves that his client did it, under the rules of discovery, they are obliged to turn over the evidence to the prosecution.Though it goes against all his instincts, Bosch reluctantly takes the case. The prosecution's file just has too many holes and he has to find out for himself: if Haller's client didn't do it, then who did? With the secret help of his former LAPD partner Lucy Soto, Harry starts digging. Soon his investigation leads him inside the police department, where he realizes that the killer he's been tracking has also been tracking him.Thrilling, fast-paced, and impossible to put down, The Crossing shows without a shadow of doubt that Connelly is "a master of building suspense" (Wall Street Journal).

Review "As always with a Bosch novel, the delight is in the 'inside police' details....What Bosch does discover in The Crossing...should keep him busy--and Connelly fans happy--for years to come."―Maureen Corrigan, Washington Post"A classic whodunit...an extra treat for the reader is being able to follow the case from the dual perspectives of the prosecution and the defense... Brothers Bosch and Haller may be, but at times they seem a lot like an ego and its id."―Marilyn Stasio, New York Times Book Review"Connelly continues to write quality crime fiction, and The Crossing is another great character study mixed with a truly baffling puzzle."―Jeff Ayers, Associated Press"Tense and effective"―Tom Nolan, Wall Street Journal"The Crossing is another strong offering from perennial bestseller Michael Connelly.... He elevates the genre."―Colleen Kelly, Minneapolis Star Tribune"Connelly has created a subtle gem."―Barry Lancet, New York Journal of Books"Thrilling.... Harry is back in his groove....Finding the connections between the parts of the case...gives readers Harry at his best. We get the bonus of seeing Mickey take that case to court for one of his bravura performances."―Colette Bancroft, Tampa Bay Times"Connelly painstakingly and brilliantly shows Bosch slogging after the truth.... As always, Connelly's blackboard work is as precise as his finale is exciting."―Booklist"Masterly....Indeed, the notion of crossing resonates on different levels--the intersection of predator and prey, cops gone rogue, and for Bosch, the transition from one part of his life into something exciting and new."―Publishers Weekly (starred review)"The Crossing again proves Connelly as a master of the genre."―Oline H. Cogdill, Sun-Sentinel"Michael Connelly remains one of the most reliable writers in the PI crowd. Thirty books on, his plots get tougher and his characters more engaging. The only thing better than Harry Bosch and Mickey Haller is having the pair together and that's what The Crossing delivers, one of the best of Connelly's tales....You won't put this one down from first page to last."―Margaret Cannon, Globe and Mail"Connelly never dithers.... Despite his prolific output, Connelly rarely stumbles and he continues to find new and interesting angles to explore in detective and legal matters."―Erik Spanberg, Christian Science Monitor

Fortunately, criminal defense attorney Mickey Haller has a task that may be right up Bosch's alley--to find out whether Haller's client, Da'Quan Foster, is being framed for the beating death of thirty-eight year old Alexandra Parks, an assistant city manger for West Hollywood. The trial is scheduled to take place is in six weeks. Harry is reluctant to cross over to defense work, also known as "the dark side." Still, if a miscarriage of justice has occurred, Bosch has the skills and determination to uncover the truth.Since Harry no longer has a badge, he has no official standing. All he has is "a letter of engagement" stating that he is operating under the aegis of Mickey Haller and his licensed private investigator, Dennis Wojciechowski, who has been injured in an accident. Haller gives Harry the murder book, which Bosch proceeds to scrutinize. In addition, Harry contacts his former partner, who takes risks to help him procure further information. Michael Connelly's "The Crossing" has multiple meanings. First, Harry crosses over from the prosecution to the defense, a move that makes neither him nor her former colleagues happy. A crossing may also be "the place where the circle of the victim's life overlaps the circle of the predator." Why and under what circumstances did these people meet and how did they interact? Harry will not stop digging until he knows the answers to all of these questions. He methodically examines the facts, employs his finely honed instincts to good effect, and interviews witnesses to clarify matters. Gradually he puts the pieces together and discovers a conspiracy involving greed, brutality, extortion, and corruption.Although some may prefer Bosch with badge in hand, it is fascinating to observe him facing this new chapter in his life. With his daughter leaving for college, he is an empty nester. His existence is solitary, with little to occupy his time other than restoring a 1950 Harley-Davidson motorcycle and listening to his beloved jazz music. Harry is most fulfilled when he gets his teeth into a complex inquiry; he notices small but telling details that others overlook and derives satisfaction from identifying and apprehending killers. Michael Connelly, who is one of the best in the business, presents us with a well-constructed and compelling plot; intriguing characters; spare, vivid, and fast-moving prose; sardonic humor; pitch perfect dialogue; an atmospheric California setting; and an iconic hero who is stubborn, brilliant, irascible, and always true to himself and his unique code of ethics.

Another great Harry Bosch book in the series as Harry goes over to the "dark side" By outwest Any fan of Michael Connelly is going to enjoy this book. The Bosch novels are usually fantastic, though his Mickey Haller ones can be fun as well) but his latest is sure to work well in the Harry Bosch series.It is a bit different than the rest of the series in that Harry Bosch has retired from the LAPD and is forcing legal action against them for kicking him out. Of course, he ends up helping out on a case for the attorney who has taken his civil case and next thing you know, Harry is right in the middle of a murder mystery. The flip of the story is that Harry is working for the defense, and rather than trying to put someone behind bars, is trying to keep someone from being convicted. The prosecution seems to have a solid case, and in his new role, Harry is in danger of betraying the very principles he's lived by his whole career and, as his old colleagues call it, has gone over to the defense "dark side."The pacing is deliberate and measured, until it builds to a classic Connelly ending. Any fan will enjoy this upcoming release, as it fits nicely into the Harry Bosch series. A great read.

The pace of the book made it easy to read, but I will confess that the overall length of the story seemed shorter than usual. Though the focus of the story was one single case which then led to other related cases (which happens a lot) - the book introduces the "bad guys" by name within the first few chapters, meaning that there was no big reveal or twist as per other Connelly books. Instead the book becomes about how Bosch solves the puzzle to which we already know the solution. Another irritant is that in prior books, Bosch seems adept at being able to spot that he is being tailed. Before his car was tagged, he was still followed a few times which I would have thought he should have noticed.I also thought that whilst fans of Connelly's writing will enjoy the partnership between Micky Haller and Bosch - Haller was effectively underused. He was effectively used to give Bosch someone to talk to so that his thoughts could be expressed verbally. Given that Bosch had "crossed over" there was very little made of any conflict between Haller and Bosch where they should have been. Haller at his best (which is in the court room) was only shown in the first and final chapters, and it really felt like the final courtroom sequence seemed unnecessary other than giving us a more Haller "action". At least it was refreshing for Haller to finally have an "innocent" client.Lastly - I can now not recall how many Bosch (or Haller) stories seem to conclude with the main character being threatened in their home. I appreciate that this makes it scarier, but seriously how many people have now been killed in or around Bosch's house? I just think that this has become a cliched climax on these books that has been overused.Again - this book was an enjoyable 6 hours of reading, but not the best Bosch, nor the best Connelly.
