During Michael Connelly's (immensely productive) last decade, he's had 13 novels published, including nine that feature LAPD Detective Hieronymus "Harry" Bosch. The latest Bosch title, Lost Light, is doing very well, with more than 275,000 copies in print. Connelly's many fans are getting an extra treat during his current 18-city tour: a free, limited-edition jazz CD. It's a collection of Bosch's (and Connelly's) faves—music that has generally figured in the detective's exploits in one way or another.
