Description
A Darkness More Than Night follows Harry Bosch as he becomes engulfed in a high-profile case captivating celebrity-obsessed Los Angeles. A movie director is accused of murdering an actress during an intimate encounter, then disguising the crime as a suicide. Bosch, both the arresting officer and the leading witness, is thrust into the centre of a trial attracting a frenzied Hollywood media.
Meanwhile, Terry McCaleb enjoys a peaceful retirement on Catalina Island until a visit from an old colleague pulls him back into the world he once knew. A murder has occurred, the kind he used to expertly decipher during his FBI career. With the investigation stalled, the sheriff's office seeks McCaleb's expertise to examine the murder book for missed clues.
McCaleb's initial analysis suggests a methodical killer obsessed with rituals and vengeance. As his investigation quickly intensifies, it conspires that the two cases – the loner’s murder and Bosch's director case – mysteriously intersect. With each shocking discovery, they merge into a single, terrifying narrative, involving staggering complexity. McCaleb believes he has identified the most menacing killer he has ever encountered. However, as his investigation collides with Bosch's own, the two men confront each other in the riskiest investigation they've ever faced.
