9 Dragons by Michael Connelly

Michael Connelly remains one of my top favorite authors. 9 dragons is excellent!!! I read this in one sitting.
Detective Harry Bosch investigates a murder uncovering a link to a Hong Kong triad and the secret societies of China. Harry travels to a place in Hong Kong known as Nine Dragons(Kowloon). Harry risks everything to find his daughter in Nine Dragons. He faces criminal charges in Hong Kong while running the investigation in L.A.
Michael Connelly's 9 Dragons reaches a conclusion only to find out things are not what they seem to be!!! Wow!!! Fantastic!!!!
