Blogs: My Books 
I’ll try to review the books I’ve read, so it’s more than just a list of books
The Last Coyote by Michael Connelly
I realised I missed out this and The Narrows, but they magically appeared under the Xmas tree this year, so that turned out nice again. I read The Last Coyote first, because it comes sooner in the series. It answered a lot of questions for me, like where Pounds had gone, and was especially good because in the last book, Echo Park, Bosch kept referring to his mother’s death all the time, which is the investigation that this book is about.
Bosch is on involuntary leave from the LAPD, after smashing Pounds’s head into the glass between his office and the detective’s room, and so, not being one to leave well alone, he goes and gets out the murder book on his mother’s death. He realises things don’t add up; at first he thinks that the investigation was simply perfunctory because his mother was just another dead prostitute that nobody cared about, but then it turns out there’s more to it than that. He soon stirs up a hornets nest as he pokes about in the old case, and those hornets have got sharp stings.
