Recensione:
How smart and forunate for listeners that Hachette Audio has turned to veteran Connelly reader Len Cariou for some added weight. Cariou catches all the strength and sadness behind Bosch's minimal dialogue and is alo perfect as Harry's LAPD collagues, female and male. He is especially good at bringing to frightening life the real villains: the fedeal investigators, headed by a former Bosch lover, FBI agent Rachel Walling.
Connelly (Echo Park) delivers a masterly piece of cotemporary fiction that goes beyond the average police procedural. Connelly's novels are quite simply only getting better with age; the banter of the murder investigation is smart and the action taut. This sixth narraton of a Bosch mystery by Len Cariou is excellent and brings the characters to life. Highly recommended. (Library Journal 2007)
By now, most listeners will agree that Len Cariou IS Harry Bosch. Cariou took over about five novels back and has made his own mark with the Connelly books. The only negative fans may voice about Connelly's latest is that it's very short--about half the usual length. That's probably because it started out as a New York Times serialized novel (16 weeks) and was expanded for hardcover and audio publication. In it, Bosch investigates the murder of a doctor and the disappearance of some radioactive cesium. Naturally, Bosch and the FBI lock horns. The case also brings back Bosch's lost love, Agent Rachel Walling. Cariou handles all his characters with aplomb, and Bosch with the gruff preciseness listeners have come to expect.

Harry Bosch is back with another adventure and who's narrating the can't-put-down Standout Broadway, television and film actor Len Cariou, of course. For many of us the one and only voice of he indefatigable Bosch. His reading is tops - spare, tough, determined. (Audio File 2007)
Actor Cariou, in his expert prcticed way giives his listeners all the variations of charcter, accents, and mood anyone could want. The ae moves swiftly but the story is easy to follow. (KLIATT Mary Purucker 2007)
