is anyone willing to summarize each chapter, in moderate detail?

I am reading or re-reading all the Connelly books in order. I am reading the Narrows now (for the 2nd time.) I enjoy keeping things in order but find I remember some books more than others. While reading the Narrows I like the references to the Blood Work movie and noticed it was on tcv so I watched it last night. Now I remember the reason for the killings from the book (not mentioned in the movie) I forget who the killer is in the book - definitely not Buddy (and I can see why he doesn't like his portrayal.) Can someone tell me who the killer was in Blood Work? Allan

Everytime I read a Bosch novel, I try to think of an actor who would portray Bosch, if novels were made into TV movies. I can't come up with the perfect guy. Can you?

For some strange reason, I just found this forum. Not much action, is there? MC is my most favorite author in this genre, especially those novels with Harry Bosch. Tho, I must say Blood Work w/Terry McCaleb was the most fascinating and have read it 3 times. When the big-screen movie was shown on tv, I was greatly disappointed with who was made the killer...was not the one in the book! Clint Eastwood was quite good as McCaleb. Once the winter winds begin, I plan on rereading every one of MC's novels, from the very beginning. Come on, MC readers, let's move more on this forum!!! Connelly is well-worth it!

Bobby Blades: Good review for Echo Park, but too bad you didn't fix your typos!

I recently read "Crime Beat" by Michael Connelly. It has interesting real crimes. Connelly also tells how he became a journalist, and he said his novels are largely based on real cases. Good book.

hi, just found this message board. looks like it doesn't get used much. is that good or bad? anyway, just found a newer book written by M.C. wanted to know if it was worth going back to the beginning and reading all of his books.

The Lincoln Lawyer was more than I anticipated from a new character. He is your average criminal attorney motivated by greed, public attention and keeping his ex-wives happy. Please keep him around for another go because he is human and knows his faults better than the average character. As one who has read all your books, I continue to be amazed at how fresh and new you seem to be each time. Keep it up Michael, you are great!

Perhaps my favorite scene came in the final few pages of LOST LIGHT: tough guy Harry Bosch's discovery that he had a daughter. What a touching end.
