Ah, the library beckoned. I'm about to start THE DROP by Michael Connelly. This is 17th of 17 in series featuring Harry Bosch, a homicide detective in Los Angeles. Here is a description:
Harry Bosch has been given three years before he must retire from the LAPD, and he wants cases more fiercely than ever. In one morning, he gets two. DNA from a 1989 rape and murder matches a 29-year-old convicted rapist. Was he an eight-year-old killer or has something gone terribly wrong in the new Regional Crime Lab? The latter possibility could compromise all of the lab’s DNA cases currently in court. Then Bosch and his partner are called to a death scene fraught with internal politics. Councilman Irvin Irving’s son jumped or was pushed from a window at the Chateau Marmont. Irving, Bosch’s longtime nemesis, has demanded that Harry handle the investigation. Relentlessly pursuing both cases, Bosch makes two chilling discoveries: a killer operating unknown in the city for as many as three decades, and a political conspiracy that goes back into the dark history of the police department.
It was published October 29th and has 400 pages.
Well, Herman Cain has dropped out of the presidential race. They got to him. I don't know if he would have made it all the way, his foreign affairs knowledge was lacking and his campaign probably not ready for the big leagues. Santorum still has the conservative chops I like but he just can't break to the top. I think it may come down to hold your nose and vote GOP again whoever it is when it comes next November. Anybody but Obama.
It's a nice Saturday. While taking the boys for a fun in a field, I saw and heard a hawk in the early morning light. Went to the library to pick up two holds. Steve is doing a little recycling. I'm getting bedding and towels done and vacuuming. We're having taco salad for dinner. There's a nap in my future. Life is good.
Much love,
