I read The Narrows before I rread Blood work. The Narrows is almost a sequel to Blood work. I will probably read them again but in the correct order. They are both excellent and keep you so bound that you finish then each in a day or so and I am not a fast reader! I am busy with Angels Flight and find it difficult to put down. I enjoy Harry Bosch.. My thanks to Connelly. Trevor Greyvenstein (retired Headmaster with lots of time to read)
