They are half-brothers.<br /><br />I liked The Reversal until the ending, which I thought was one of those over-the-top car chase/explosion-type endings. I would have preferred a slightly more realistic conclusion.<br /><br />Can't wait to see what you think of The Fifth Witness.kathy d.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8273911883856580200.post-51347327264675148032011-07-12T14:09:44.537+09:302011-07-12T14:09:44.537+09:30Thanks Bill.

At the same time I did not think it was one of Connelly's great books. I concluded that I think Bosch and Haller are better in individual books rather than in combined stories.Bill Selneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17268006369157307593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8273911883856580200.post-24333006564335495332011-07-12T11:12:33.332+09:302011-07-12T11:12:33.332+09:30Kerrie - Thanks so much for your take on this.

It would have to, don't you think?<br /><br />I really like the Connelly characters, and yes, it is so interesting that he has both Haller and Bosch in several of the novels.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8273911883856580200.post-52922360533595855262011-07-12T10:27:03.777+09:302011-07-12T10:27:03.777+09:30This is another of those audio books that we won a...This is another of those audio books that we won at CrimeFest, but I agree, you wonder what you are missing, what has been left out. I suspect that in this case there was a lot of description. The result as I said makes it feel like the same events are being described over and over again.Kerriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13581470363339796352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8273911883856580200.post-5661992268721346062011-07-12T10:17:02.725+09:302011-07-12T10:17:02.725+09:30I love Connelly's work and can't wait to r...I love Connelly's work and can't wait to read this. The last time I listened to an abridged audio book I felt like I was missing soemthing so I try to avoid abridged now.bermudaonionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726401178972099557noreply@blogger.com
