About this listen
When an LAPD narcotics officer is found with a fatal bullet wound and a suicide note, Detective Harry Bosch follows a bloody trail of drug murders across the Mexico border.
Working on the case, LAPD detective Harry Bosch is reminded of the primal police rule he learned long ago: Don't look for the facts, but the glue that holds them together. Soon Harry's making some very dangerous connections, starting with a dead cop and leading to a bloody string of murders that wind from Hollywood Boulevard to the back alleys south of the border. Now this battle-scarred veteran will find himself in the center of a complex and deadly game - one in which he may be the next and likeliest victim.

Story
For maverick LAPD homicide detective Harry Bosch, the body in the drainpipe at Mulholland Dam is more than another anonymous statistic. This one is personal...because the murdered man was a fellow Vietnam "tunnel rat" who had fought side by side with him in a hellish underground war. Now Bosch is about to relive the horror of Nam. From a dangerous maze of blind alleys to a daring criminal heist beneath the city, his survival instincts will once again be tested to their limit.

Story
The man most hated by the LAPD - a black lawyer who has made his name by bringing lawsuits alleging racism and brutality by police officers - has been found murdered on the eve of a high-profile trial. The list of suspects includes half the police force. And Harry Bosch is the detective chosen to head the investigation. The political dangers of the case are huge. If it's not investigated fairly, the public outcry could make the Rodney King riots look tame. But a full investigation will take Bosch into the ugliest corners of law enforcement.

Detective Harry Bosch has retired from the LAPD, but his half-brother, defense attorney Mickey Haller, needs his help. The murder rap against his client seems ironclad, but Mickey is sure it's a setup. Though it goes against all his instincts, Bosch takes the case.

The messages waiting for Henry Pierce when he plugs in his new phone clearly aren't intended for him. They indicate something has gone terribly wrong for a woman named Lilly. Pierce probes, investigates, and then tumbles through a hole, leaving behind a life driven by work to track down and help a woman he's never met. Connelly's latest is "a grabber from the beginning...utterly compelling."

wonderful second in the series
great story. Michael Connelly never fails to keep his listeners (readers) entertained. A continuation of The Black Echo. Harry Bosch is so intriguing and I still feel I dont know everything about him. he is a mystery that seems to unfold slowly through the series.

Amazing performance
The tone of this book is dark and heavy. It is very hard to put down, it might be the best Bosh story yet! And the performance is amazing! The reader puts a lot of character into his lines, it is very easy to picture who is talking and the acting helps you see the action as in a movie. Definitely recommended!

Very good!
A great second story to the Bosch series (I am coming late to these books). Connelly has an excellent grasp of the LAPD workings and weaves believable tales. Black Ice ends with a nice, somewhat unexpected twist. I will certainly move to Concrete Blonde, the third Bosch book. As with the first book, The Black Echo DickHill does an excellent narration.

Superior Crime-Thriller
LAPD Detective Heironymous Bosch is a most interesting character. Hard-bitten and jaded, he still dedicates himself wholeheartedly to solving crimes with empathetic motivation, dogged determination, and impressive intuition. By this point in the series, he still sees the world in stark Black & White terms (he becomes a much more complex character in later books), but this is still an excellent mystery.
It begins with the suicide of an LA Vice Cop who leaves behind an intriguing note: "I found out who I was".. and evolves into an exploration of potentially dirty cops involved in the drug trade from Hawaii & Mexico.
The writing is typical for Michael Connelly: gritty, descriptive, and well-crafted. Connelly develops a captivating plot, very quickly immerses his readers in the investigation, and then throws some action and twists & turns at them.
Dick Hill turns in an impressive performance in this episode. Character voices sound remarkably lifelike (he appropriately and realistically sighs, "Umm.."s & stammers), he largely avoids ill-considered accents, and his injudicious use of voice modulation effects for over-the-telephone dialogue is more limited than in other recordings. This is one of the better readings I have heard from Mr. Hill.
'The Black Ice' doesn't have the same impact of other installments in the 'Harry Bosch' series, but it's a tremendous Mystery-Thriller performed well. I rate this recording 9 stars out of 10.

Harry is a flawed hero who still has an unshakeable moral compass.
This was a riveting story that was filled with with descriptive detail that was extraordinarily accurate.
I’ve actually been to the border and can relate to everything that Harry was seeing as he cross the border.
Even though I have come to expect a twist in the plot from Michael Connelly, I was still surprised in the final pages.
An absolute must read I can’t wait for the next addition
