Harry Bosch is at loose ends now that he is no longer employed by the Los Angeles Police Department. Fortunately, criminal defense attorney Mickey Haller has a task that may be right up Bosch's alley--to find out whether Haller's client, Da'Quan Foster, is being framed for the beating death of thirty-eight year old Alexandra Parks, an assistant city manger for West Hollywood. The trial is scheduled to take place is in six weeks. Harry is reluctant to cross over to defense work, also known as "the dark side." Still, if a miscarriage of justice has occurred, Bosch has the skills and determination to uncover the truth.Since Harry no longer has a badge, he has no official standing. All he has is "a letter of engagement" stating that he is operating under the aegis of Mickey Haller and his licensed private investigator, Dennis Wojciechowski, who has been injured in an accident. Haller gives Harry the murder book, which Bosch proceeds to scrutinize. In addition, Harry contacts his former partner, who takes risks to help him procure further information. Michael Connelly's "The Crossing" has multiple meanings. First, Harry crosses over from the prosecution to the defense, a move that makes neither him nor her former colleagues happy. A crossing may also be "the place where the circle of the victim's life overlaps the circle of the predator." Why and under what circumstances did these people meet and how did they interact? Harry will not stop digging until he knows the answers to all of these questions. He methodically examines the facts, employs his finely honed instincts to good effect, and interviews witnesses to clarify matters. Gradually he puts the pieces together and discovers a conspiracy involving greed, brutality, extortion, and corruption.
