The Black Echo by Michael Connelly

The Black Echo is the first book in the Harry Bosch series. Published in 1992 the plot is based on a true crime which occurred in Los Angeles which took place around the same time the author had an interview for a job as a crime reporter for the Los Angeles Times.
An excellent thriller and a terrific read and Harry Bosch is a great character. Enjoyed it so much that I have just started the second book in the series The Black Ice and intend to go on to read all the others.
