Wow, Bosch books never fail, now I‘m all caught up. Ballard & Bosch have been working cold cases for a while , they work well together. Bosch is particularly intent on finding his white whale, a murderer evil enough to take out a whole family. Connelly is very good in describing how politics & appearances influence higher ups in policing. #seriesLove2024

Wife/mother disappears, did her lawyer husband kill her? Written from various points of view. The children all have different beliefs and reactions to this tragedy. Fairly good read. I give it 4/5

This was a great mystery - loved the main character so much I‘ve requested the first book in the series. Happy to have found a new series to get into thanks to @kspenmoll and #auldlangspine

November 1975, ten-year-old Miranda Larkin comes home from school to find her house eerily quiet. Her mother is missing. Nothing else is out of place. There is no sign of struggle. Her mom's pocketbook remains in the front hall, in its usual spot. So begins a mystery that will span a lifetime. What happened to Jane Larkin? Investigators suspect Jane's husband.

Andrew65, TheSpineView, TheAromaofBooks

EadieB A criminal defense attorney, Dan Larkin would surely be an expert in outfoxing the police. But no evidence is found linking him to a crime, and the case fades from the public's memory, a simmering, unresolved riddle. Jane's three children--Alex, Jeff, and Miranda--are left to be raised by the man who may have murdered their mother. Two decades later, the remains of Jane Larkin are found. 4mo

EadieB The investigation is awakened. The children, now grown, are forced to choose sides. With their father or against him? Guilty or innocent? And what happens if they are wrong? A tale about family--family secrets and vengeance, but also family love--All That Is Mine I Carry With Me masterfully grapples with a primal question: When does loyalty reach its limit? 4mo

EadieB I have read Defending Jacob and was looking forward to reading a new book by William Landay. I was not disappointed and found his book to be very interesting. The characters were very believable and real. The plot was one that took me through the book quickly as I had to find out what happened to Jane Larkin. The ending was a twist that I did not see coming and I think you need to read this book and find out what happened to Joan. 4mo

EadieB I am now looking forward to another book by Landay and hope I don't have to wait as long as I waited for this one. 4mo

Andrew65 An excellent pick. 4mo

KathyWheeler I loved her Tony Hill books, but I‘ve never read any of the Karen Purie ones. I‘ll have to check them out. 4mo

TrishB @KathyWheeler they‘re not as gruesome as the Tony Hill ones, but if you like those I think you‘ll like these 👍🏻 4mo

KathyWheeler @TrishB Good to know. The Tony Hill books could get a little gruesome at times. 4mo

BoleyBooks @AmandaBlaze is it good so far? 🤓 6mo

AmandaBlaze Some are really good. However, a lot resort to gore to get their point home. I usually read kids‘ Halloween books in between as a palate cleanser. 6mo

BoleyBooks @AmandaBlaze good idea 👍 an occasional switch up is needed. Happy Reading! 😊 6mo
