 The Closers - Michael Connelly
Newest Review: ... it takes to get justice, even if his tactics are a bit maverick at times. He reminds me somewhat of Alex Cross from the James ... more  ... Patterson novels.
Kizmin 'Kiz' Rider- Bosch's partner. Kiz is more rational and calm than Bosch and somewhat levels him out in his thinking process.

Although I am an avid reader of crime fiction, I had never read anything by Michael Connelly until I picked up this novel.

One particular case launches out at them immediately, but its politically sensitive nature and content cause friction.

Superb novel, high pace, tense, lots of action 
None, well lots if you don't like the genre! Good pace, twists and codes all involved. I felt it wrapped up too quickly. Clever plot, incredible denouement Weak characterisation Fast pace, good characters, great central relationship Now cliche, just like the film Fast Paced Thriller, Good Plot, Interesting Characters, Over 500 Pages Probably better if I had read the first two books in the series first - doh !Possessing the Secret of Joy - Alice Walker
