Synopsis "the narrows"

In the depths of the Nevada desert, FBI agent Rachel Walling and former LAPD Detective Harry Bosch must confront The Poet, a terrifying serial killer who leads them down a dark and twisted path. FBI agent Rachel Walling finally gets the call she's dreaded for years, the one that tells her the Poet has surfaced. She has never forgotten the serial killer who wove lines of poetry in his hideous crimes -- and apparently he has not forgotten her.Former LAPD detective Harry Bosch gets a call, too -- from the widow of an old friend. Her husband's death seems natural, but his ties to the hunt for the Poet make Bosch dig deep. Arriving at a derelict spot in the California desert where the feds are unearthing bodies, Bosch joins forces with Rachel. Now the two are at odds with the FBI . . . and squarely in the path of the Poet, who will lead them on a wicked ride out of the heat, through the narrows of evil, and into a darkness all his own . . .

American writer born on July 21, 1956 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Graduated in Journalism from the University of Florida in 1980, he worked in various media outlets in Fort Lauderdale and Daytona Beach.

After being nominated in 1986 for a Pulitzer for a series of interviews with survivors of the Delta Airlines Flight 191 crash, written in collaboration with two colleagues, he moved to California after accepting a job offer from the Los Angeles Times.

Connelly is a well-known author for his detective novels. Particularly popular is his character Heronymus "Harry" Bosch (named in homage to the Flemish painter Hieronymus Bosch), a Los Angeles police detective who appears in more than a dozen of his novels. The novel Blood Work (1998) was later adapted into a film directed and starred by Clint Eastwood.

Throughout his career, he has won well-known awards such as the RBA International Prize for Crime Writing.
