Harry Bosch in ‘The Drop’ by Michael Connelly review

Harry Bosch in ‘The Drop’ by Michael Connelly review.
http://jackreachernovels.blogspot.com/

 When i started reading The Drop i thought i was reading a script from a reality T.V.cop show , a bunch of station cop chatter, yes that is right this book starts slow , all of Connelly's books do,so i was not to concerned. It was not long before Bosh and Chu had 2 cases going,.I have read and been a fan of the  Harry Bosch series for quite a few books now, Harry is kind of a grumpy older dirty harry with a daughter he raises as a single dad.He bends the rules but does not break them.


The son of a councilman commits suicide and of course they demand Bosh takes the case even though the father and Bosh hate each other.I like the book because you predict a lot of things that are going to happen and your wrong ,that's what a good book is all about,your interest makes you predict and the author guesses your prediction misleads you and you look like a fool in your own eyes for not being right.I was wrong 2 or 3 times in this story,so you know there is a lot of twists that keep your interest.


Grumpy Bosh even manages a little romance with a sex councilor,and of course she has more issues than the New York Times.I like this book but i like the last half much better than  the first half.It is basically a true detective story along the lines of Mike Hammer or Alex Cross. Connelly is not Patterson nor is Bosh, Alex Cross, but it is a must read and it will entertain you, this book will sell well simply because it is believable, it is not fantasy.
