DaJuan Johnson

Fifteen months after solving the cold case murder of his mother Marjorie Lowe, and suffering the loss of his ex-wife, Eleanor, things look grim for Detective Harry Bosch. Strung-out and dirty, Bosch steps off a plane in the middle of nowhere.

Stuck at the desert shill encampment with no easy escape plan and no way to communicate with Edgar, Bosch befriends Clayton and searches for information about his murder suspects.

A detail from Kent's widow Alicia leads Bosch and the FBI to suspect a group of Sovereign citizens in connection to the stolen radioactive cesium and Overlook murder, but they clash over tactics, causing a deadly standoff.

Bosch discovers there's more to Alicia Kent's story than meets the eye. Elizabeth Clayton calls with news that jump starts her daughter's cold case. Edgar and Hovan craft a plan to move in on Avril.
