Michael Connelly writes assured, well-plotted mysteries that hit all the right buttons ... CITY OF BONES is altogether a good, fast-paced, ingeniously plotted read OBSERVER
One of Connelly's best books ... Characterisation sharp enough to draw blood; excitements of the heart and mind; crime fiction at its aching, impeccable best LITERARY REVIEW
A stunningly good novel: powerful, intriguing and impossible to lay down - perhaps, indeed, the best of the series EVENING STANDARD
Slick plotting, far-from-gratuitous thrills, a breakneck pace and superb characteisation have always typified Michael Connelly's novels about the dark side of California. CITY OF BONES, which sees the return of Detective Harry Bosch, proves no exception GUARDIAN
[A] taut thriller from the award-winning author ... It's realistic, riveting and first-rate HELLO
A remarkable achievement: a page-turning thriller that rejects easy answers or feelgood endings, a crime novel which points out that solving a crime does not in itself even begin to set the world to rights MAIL ON SUNDAY
Packed with Connelly's memorable twists and turns ... emotionally wrenching, yet never lacking the compassion that Bosch has come to symbolise, CITY OF BONES will delight Connelly's millions of fans and should - if there is any justice in the world (which Bosch doubts) - win him a great many more DAILY MAIL
Connelly is, in my view, simply the best crime thriller writing working today and in CITY OF BONES he is on top form MAIL ON SUNDAY
