I very much enjoyed The DROP by Michael Connelly which has Harry Bosch working past retirement under the Deferred Retirement Option Plan in the cold case unit. DNA belonging to a serial sex offender is found when an old case of murder is reopened. However, the offender would have been a child at the time so an explanation needs to be found. Bosch is sidetracked by the death of the son of an old adversary, Irvin Irving, a local politician, who insists that Bosch investigate the death which he thinks is suspicious. Bosch is then investigating two cases and there are tensions with his offsider David Chu as newspapers are getting inside information. Bosch meets with the sex offender who tells him about his childhood and the person he blames for making him the way he is. Finally Bosch is able to resolve both crimes, one with shocking results. It is a good suspenseful ride. 4/5Tuesday, May 21, 2013
