  9. Detective has been good to his creator

    It's been two decades since the maverick Los Angeles homicide detective Hieronymus "Harry" Bosch made his debut in Michael Connelly's first novel, "The Black Echo." In 18 novels over that span, the hard-charging, short-tempered, fiercely independent Bosch &mdash; named, appropriately, for the 15th-century Dutch painter known for hellish scenes of physical and spiritual violence &mdash; has hunted down and confronted a series of murderers, several of them serial killers; repeatedly clashed with his co-workers and bosses at the Los Angeles Police Department; and engaged in a series of personal and family relationships, all of them difficult, most of them short-term.
