Book Reviews of The Last Coyote
Book Review: A Relic of an LAPD Gone By?
Summary: 5 Stars
Tough, smart, to-the-point LAPD homicide detective Harry Bosch is on the edge. His girlfriend left him, his house has been condemned after being ruined in an earthquake, and the department forced him to temporarily return his detective's badge while undergoing therapy for attacking his commanding officer.
Now suspended pending the outcome of his psychiatric evaluation, he becomes obsessed with investigating a 30 year old cold case: the brutal slaying of an LA call girl who happened to be his own mother. Harry lives by a code: either everyone counts or nobody counts and he applies this code vehemently to solving this very personal case and soon discovers he may be ruffling some feathers among the high and mighty.
He spots a lone coyote near his condemned house who seems bewildered, lost and confused and identifies strongly with the animal. He wonders if it is the last one to survive up in the hills above LA after the earthquake. Then he wonders if he's a lone relic of a LAPD that doesn't exist any more...from a time before everything in the department was computerized and when most cops didn't moon light in jobs like selling real estate on the side.
Connelly is a master of twists and turns in his plotlines. This one has a murderer I don't think anyone will guess until the very end.
