Los Angeles - Malibu. The MC lives at Paradise Cove where we had a wonderful lunch in November.
It‘s been a while since I got into the Bosch Universe, so I have skipped about 10 titles with this one. But because of the streamed version, I‘m feeling up-to-date.

Reading Akin has brought back memories of our stay in Nice last year. We visited many of the places mentioned. And I just realised we were staying only a few minutes from the Hotel Excelsior!

What a lovely gift, thank you 😊.
We had a belated gift opening yesterday afternoon as we were travelling on Christmas Day, we waited until we were all together.
There may have also been some yummy fudge 😋
