The Black Box by Michael Connelly

The Black Box by Michael Connelly, 403 pages.
Not to be confused with Connelly's other Harry Bosch titles, The Black Echo or The Black Ice.
In the most recent of Connelly's novels featuring Los Angeles police detective Harry Bosch, a murder committed during the 1992 riots lands on Harry's desk in the Opened / Unsolved unit. The murder victim was a Danish reporter. Harry was one of the detectives who got the call back in "92, but in the chaos of that time in that place, it got taken from him. It has haunted him since then. Harry is butting heads with his new lieutenant over the case. After seeing this sort of scenario in almost every Bosch novel it seems a little strained. The ending seems a little un-Bosch like, though. It's not bad, it's different, and seems as though it was written by another writer.
