Michael Connelly is a fabulous author. His Harry Bosch series is incredibly addictive. I am on my 11th book in the series. I can't see to read anything else. The action starts fast on all of his books. You know when you get to the end of the book, most of the time, it is like parting with a friend because the book characters get to be people you almost feel like you know. With these books, it just takes half way through the first chapter and you are already attached to the new ones. Also, he is clever about intertwining other characters into multiple books. A great read.

As usual Harry Bosch is an unpretentious, interesting former LAPD detective who is making the FBI very nervous digging up unsolved crimes. Sad chapter when Bosch visits a former cop who had gotten shot and is now quadriplegic but still helps him unravel a 4 year old heist. There are three different cases in this book, a murder, a heist and the disappearance of an FBI agent and all three might be closely related.

Whenever half-brothers Haller and Bosch get together the content usually packs twice the action and twice the interest. The Crossing is no exception. Connelly's treatment of the difference between the concept of defense vs. the concept of apprehension and prosecution is well presented and demonstrated throughout the book and the related back-stories. Personally, I prefer Bosch in his original (and comfortable) role as a detective on the apprehension and prosecution side of the house. It will be interesting if Connelly will eventually return Harry to his true vocation or allow him to continue with his edgy association with Mickey and his profession on the defense side. Either way I hope Bosch's daughter, Maddie, lightens up a bit with Connelly keeping her on the straight and narrow without overtaking major portions of story lines like it seems that John Sandford is doing with Lucas Davenport's daughter Letty. I don't think I would welcome stories or complete books featuring Mickey's and Harry's daughters I starring roles. I prefer the original Harry Bosch and Mickey Haller cattying out their respective crafts Together (but without their children). The Crossing was absorbing and held my interest throughout. I enjoyed reading it. So will you if you're a Michael Connelly fan. EDGRead full review

Story that combines two of Connelly’s major characters, Mickey Haller and Harry Bosch. The Lincoln Lawyer tales are always interesting treatments of the legalese and daily encounters of the protagonist. Adding in the investogator, Bosch, makes all the more entertaining. review by Zeus Faber
