El eco negro (The Black Echo)

by Michael Connelly

Overview

When Harry Bosch—former hero cop bumped from the L.A. homicide desk to the lowly Beverly Hills squad—gets the call on a death at Mulholland Dam, he recognizes the corpse as that of a fellow soldier in Vietnam. Together they had searched for Viet Cong in burrows beneath Vietnamese villages, and had both experienced the "black echo" of their own panic reverberating in their ears. Further investigation connects his old pal to an unsolved bank job—storm drains tunneled into the bank vault. When Harry and beautiful FBI agent Eleanor Wish uncover the connections between Vietnam and the bank job, both are put in danger by deadly ex-Marines and a powerful insider from either the LAPD or the FBI itself.

Harry Bosh, detective de la policía de Los Angeles, es un lobo solitario. Hijo de una prostituta asesinada, fue criado en orfanatos y quedó marcado tras vivir la dura experiencia de Vietnam. Ahora, un caso rutinario de muerte por sobredosis le devuelve inesperadamente al pasado. La víctima, Billy Meadows, había servido en su misma unidad en Vietnam. Ambos habían combatido en la red de pasajes subterráneos del Viet Cong y habían experimentado el horror del "eco negro"—la reverberación en las tinieblas de su propio pánico. Ahora Meadows está muerto. Pero su rastro parece apuntar a un gran atraco bancario perpetrado a través de los túneles de alcantarillado.
