Bulvární novinář Tom James využil slabosti jednoho ze svých informátorů, na kterého poštval po pomstě prahnoucí gangstery a potom zavraždil jeho ženu. S miliony, které touto cestou získal, se uchýlí pod ochranu svědků. Avšak neústupný policista, z Vietnamu ostřílený Phil Broker, se rozhodne jednat proti zákonu, který je nedokonalý. Nakonec dosáhne spravedlnosti v psychologickém thrilleru nového autora, kterého kritika vítá jako budoucího prominenta žánru, jenž jako jeden z nemnoha nepotřebuje k navození napětí sofistikovanou technologii.

Harry Bosch finds himself yet again in charge of a case that no one else will touch... This time his job is to nail the killer of hot shot black lawyer Howard Elias. Elias has been found murdered on the eve of going to court on behalf of Michael Harris, a man the LAPD believes guilty of the rape and murder of a twelve-year-old girl. Elias had let it be known that the aim of his civil case was not only to reveal the real killer but to target and bring down the racist cops who beat up his client during a violent interrogation. Now it's all down to Bosch - and he's got to take a long, hard look at some of his colleagues in a police department that is rife with suspicion and hatred.

Terry McCaleb's enforced quiet lifestyle on the island of Catalina is a far cry from the hectic excitement of his former role as homicide detective in L.A. However, when a small-time criminal is found dead McCaleb is persuaded to profile the killer. Six years ago the victim had been arrested by Harry Bosch for murder but was later released uncharged. In doing what he does best, reviewing the crime scene tapes and investigative records, McCaleb picks up a clue the sheriffs missed, and discovers that the killer left a message at the crime scene - a message that seems to implicate Detective Harry Bosch ... 'A brilliant piece of writing that wrings every bit of emotion from the contrast between the two detectives' Daily Telegraph
