Working her graveyard shift, LAPD detective Renée Ballard waits out the traditional rain of lead as hundreds of revelers shoot their guns into the air. Only minutes after midnight, Ballard is called to a scene where a hardworking auto shop owner has been fatally hit by a bullet in the middle of a crowded street party. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBallard quickly concludes that the deadly bullet could not have fallen from the sky and that it is linked to another unsolved murder--a case at one time worked by Detective Harry Bosch. At the same time, Ballard hunts a fiendish pair of serial rapists, the Midnight Men, who have been terrorizing women and leaving no trace. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDetermined to solve both cases, Ballard feels like she is constantly running uphill in a police department indelibly changed by the pandemic and recent social unrest. It is a department so hampered by inertia and low morale that Ballard must go outside to the one detective she can count on: Harry Bosch. But as the two inexorable detectives work together to find out where old and new cases intersect, they must constantly look over their shoulders. The brutal predators they are tracking are ready to kill to keep their secrets hidden. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eUnfolding with unstoppable drive and nail-biting intrigue, \u003ci\u003eThe Dark Hours\u003c\/i\u003e shows that \"relentless on their own, Ballard's and Bosch's combined skills...could be combustible\" (\u003ci\u003eLos Angeles Times\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMichael Connelly \u003c\/b\u003eis the author of thirty-five previous novels, including the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestsellers \u003ci\u003eThe Law of Innocence\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003e, \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eFair Warning\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003e, \u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Night Fire\u003c\/i\u003e.
