After three years out of the LAPD Harry Bosch returns to find the department a very different place from the one he left, with a new police chief brought in from New York.
Working with his former cop partner Kiz Rider, Harry is assigned to the Open-Unsolved Unit. These detectives are the Closers, working on the thousands of cold cases that haunt the LAPD's files — they put a shovel in the dirt and turn over the past. Harry and Kiz are immediately thrown into a politically sensitive and dangerous case when a DNA match connects a white supremacist to the 1988 murder of a mixed-race 16-year-old girl. But as they navigate the case, someone is watching, waiting, and hoping Harry will make a mistake...
