Dark Sacred Night - Michael Connelly

This feels like the handing over of the torch.  From Detective  Harry Bosch, who after a lifetime in police he is now entering a forced retirement to Renee Ballard, who has been banished to the graveyard shift after complaining about harassment by her boss.  In this new book, they meet up to work a cold case of a young girl killed in strange circumstances years earlier.

Michael Connelly is one of those authors who shows up and delivers in his books with good pacing and quick and believable banter, and somehow manages to suck me into a story within a page or two.  A good way to end 2018. 4/5
