The black evidence box Michael Connelly

The novel came under the title "Black Evidence Box" and is authored by American novelist Michael Connelly, translated by Majid Hamed, and reviewed and edited by the Center for Arabization and Programming in Beirut. In his novel "Black Evidence Box," the American writer Michael Connelly reveals a case dating back twenty years, during which the seasoned detective Harry Bosch, the protagonist of the novel, manages to connect a bullet linked to a crime committed in 1992 with the weapon from which it was fired. The crime was the killing of a young photographer and journalist named Annike Giespersen, who was a victim during the riots that took place in Los Angeles. At that time, Harry Bosch investigated the crime before it was transferred from him and handed over to the Riot Crimes Unit, but years passed, and the case remained unsolved. Through investigations, Bosch discovers that Giespersen's murder was deliberate and not random, and his inquiries lead him to the possibility of a conspiracy that might be the reason for her death—that she did not go to Los Angeles to cover the riots but to track down a member of the National Guard who had been in the Gulf a year earlier during Desert Storm. Just as investigators in plane crash cases search for the black box, Bosch, based on the black box, seeks to gather evidence that might lead him to the perpetrator. In "Black Evidence Box," Harry Bosch investigates a case that is like a minefield, but can he, as in every case, cross the field safely?
