About this listen

When a physicist is murdered in LA it seems the killer has no fear of publicity, leaving the body on The Mulholland overlook, a site with a stunning view over the city. And when it's discovered that the victim turned over a quantity of a lethal chemical to his killer before he died, Harry knows he has more than just a single death to worry about. Alongside the forces of Homeland Security, Harry realises he must solve the murder or face unimaginable consequences.

 The Black Echo: Harry Bosch Series, Book 1 cover art
Len Cariou's readings of the Bosch novels are superb. I've bought several just for this. Handles dialogue immaculately, especially humour. Keeps you listening. One of the shorter Bosch's, with a touch of "24" (the whole case is done and dusted in under a day).

Strong story, superb performance

I love all Harry Bosch books. Well written and having read them all I’m now enjoying the audio books.

I am a big Harry Bosh fan. The plots deliver and the writing is slick, but personally I find the music jolts me out of the story. You don't get blasts of sax when you're reading after all.
