Synopsis "El observatorio (in Español / Castellano)"

En su primer caso desde que volvió a la brigada de Homicidios Especiales, Harry Bosch tiene que investigar el asesinato de un médico con acceso a un peligroso elemento radiactivo. Al volver sobre sus pasos, Bosch descubre que poco antes se robó una gran cantidad de cesio radiactivo. Con el cesio en manos desconocidas, Harry teme que el crimen forme parte de un complot terrorista para envenenar una gran ciudad. Bosch no tardará en encontrarse en una carrera contra el reloj que no solo lo enfrenta a los culpables, sino también al Departamento de Seguridad Nacional y el FBI, incluyendo a Rachel Walling, su antigua pareja, todos ellos convencidos de que el caso es demasiado importante para la policía. A Bosch le corresponderá demostrar que están equivocados.

American writer born on July 21, 1956 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Graduated in Journalism from the University of Florida in 1980, he worked in various media outlets in Fort Lauderdale and Daytona Beach.

After being nominated in 1986 for a Pulitzer for a series of interviews with survivors of the Delta Airlines Flight 191 crash, written in collaboration with two colleagues, he moved to California after accepting a job offer from the Los Angeles Times.

Connelly is a well-known author for his detective novels. Particularly popular is his character Heronymus "Harry" Bosch (named in homage to the Flemish painter Hieronymus Bosch), a Los Angeles police detective who appears in more than a dozen of his novels.

Throughout his career, he has won well-known awards such as the RBA International Prize for Crime Writing.
