Michael Connelly's 9 Dragons ~ Book Review and Giveaway!

Ready for a read that will leave you breathless? 9 Dragons is a heart-racing and exhilerating crime drama filled with the intensity and suspense Michael Connelly is famous for. Looking for an exciting and gritty cop drama? Travelling at a fast and furious pace this novel delivers!

As a cop's wife believe me I am relieved that real life cop drama most often does not parallel the excitement found in such novels! Despite this I certainly can't get enough of reading them! Connelly's tough-as-nails cop, Detective Bosch, is back but has he met his match? Known for his hot-headed nature Detective Bosch is pushed to his limits, his anger unleashed in 9 Dragons by a high-stakes case!

Connelly takes Bosch to the emotional edge in an investigation of a liquor store homicide which becomes deeply personal. Bosch is soon led through the unknown world of a traditional Asian Street Gang--the Triad--and is eventually forced into the sadistic and brutal Hong Kong underworld. His quest to find answers draws him to a place known as the 9 Dragons, a place where his life will be changed irreparably. Bosch leaves his corner fighting but he may come out battered and bruised by the time he's through!

I found this a blistering and satisfying leisure read! Intense, riveting, guaranteeing excitement and suspense at the turn of each page! You can enjoy the suspense yourselves! 5 lucky Northern Mama readers will win copies of Michael Connelly's latest 9 Dragons.
