Harry Bosch #24. I guess I forgot Bosch has a daughter. Also, I thought I had not read any Connelly for maybe ten years, but I find I read one in 2019. Seems so long ago! Anyway, Bosch is asked to volunteer for the LAPD unsolved crimes unit. He helps solve a couple 'em before the book is finished.
Harry Bosch is retired and decides to investigate a robbery involving 2 million dollers, movie makers, a missing FBI agent, and four kings. Very good, as usual.
