Detective Hieronymus &#8220;Harry&#8221; Bosch is 47 years old with twenty years on the force.\u00a0 Before becoming a cop, Bosch served in the Gulf War in the Special Forces.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It&#8217;s not been a great year for Bosch.\u00a0 Although cleared of criminal charges in a shooting, he now faces a civil trial.\u00a0 Bosch claims the suspect was pulling a gun when Bosch killed him.\u00a0 The prosecution claims the suspect was unarmed. The gun planted.\u00a0 The civil trial has created a lot of bad publicity and renewed interest in Detective Bosch by Internal Affairs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Still dealing with the trail, Bosch responds to a call.\u00a0 A child&#8217;s bones are found in a shallow grave in a wooded area near a nice neighborhood. In short order Bosch discovers leads that implicate several people&#8230; including the boy&#8217;s father.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The case takes a surprising turn when a routine traffic stop turns out to be anything but.\u00a0 Raynard Waits is driving a van containing a corpse.\u00a0 The dead man was tortured before he was killed.\u00a0 The evidence against Waits is overwhelming.\u00a0 He is a sadistic sociopath. There will be no deals, no plea bargain.<\/p>\n<p>Then everything changes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Waits claims that he also killed the little boy whose bones were recently discovered.\u00a0 Waits says he&#8217;s a serial killer of children.\u00a0 He&#8217;ll clear cases and give parents of many missing children peace of mind&#8230; but he wants something in return.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Bosch interviews Waits and has several takeaways.\u00a0 One: Waits is lying. Two: Waits is smart.\u00a0 Three: Waits is much more clever than he appears.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So when Waits says he will take the police to where he buried the bodies, Bosch is against it.\u00a0 District Attorny O&#8217;Shea (who is up for re-election) approves the field trip.\u00a0 Waits demands that Bosch be one of the officers in the group.\u00a0 Again O&#8217;Shea approves.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Bosch was right.\u00a0 Waits had a plan. It results in the murder of the Assistant DA and gravely wounds another officer.\u00a0 DA O&#8217;Shea shifts the blame for the murder and Wait&#8217;s escape to Bosch.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As Bosch&#8217;s civil trial moves forward, Waits killing spree continues.\u00a0 As the bodies pile up, Waits publically taunts Bosch.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Did Waits really kill the child?\u00a0 If not, who did?\u00a0 If Waits is a serial killer of children why was he found with an adult victim?\u00a0 Waits is using secrets from Bosch&#8217;s past to get under his skin.\u00a0 How does he know these things?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Bosch needs the answers or more innocent people will die.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Thoughts&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Bosch is excellent in all aspects &#8211; writing, directing and acting.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Harry Bosch is a well rounded character brought to life by Titus Welliver who is excellent in the role.\u00a0 Kudos also to Jason Gedrick who plays Raynard Waits.\u00a0 Gedrick is perfect.\u00a0 Other acting standouts include Jamie Hector, Amy Aquino, Lance Reddick, Annie Wersching, Troy Evans, Sarah Clarke and Scott Wilson.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Bosch: Season 1 <\/strong><\/em>(2015) rates 5 of 5 stars.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/stallonezone.com\/zone\/logo\/zview_a.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"100\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/stallonezone.com\/zone\/2026\/z071726zview_bosch_s1a.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"247\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bosch: Season 1 (2015) Developed by: Eric Overmyer;\u00a0 based on the HARRY BOSCH novels THE CONCRETE BLONDE; CITY OF BONES<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":912,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[52,17,51,65,50,74],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-42108","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-books","category-celebs","category-crime","category-trivia","category-tv","category-z-view"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42108","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/912"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=42108"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42108\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":42200,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42108\/revisions\/42200"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=42108"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=42108"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/craigzablo.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=42108"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
