By Sorrow's River - Larry McMurtry

At the heart of this third volume of his Western saga remains the beautiful and determined Tasmin Berrybender, now married to the Sin Killer and mother to their young son, Monty. Although Tasmin intends Monty to become an English Gentleman like his grandfather, he lives the childhood of a savage.

By Sorrow's River continues the Berrybender party's trail across the endless Great Plains of the West toward Santa Fe, where those lucky enough to survive the journey intend to spend the winter. along the way, Tasmin - whose husband, Jim Snow, has moved out to scout ahead - falls in love with Pomp Charbonneau who dies at the hand of the ruthless commander of the Spanish troops.

The Berrybenders meet up with a vast cast of characters from the history of the West: Kit Carson, the famous scout; Le Partezon, the fearsome Sioux war chief; the Ear Taker, an Indian whose specialty is creeping up on people while they are asleep and slicing an ear off with a sharp knife; two aristocratic Frenchmen who aim to cross the Great Plains by hot air balloon; a party of slavers led by the bloodthirsty obregon; a band of of raiding Pawnee; and many other astonishing characters who prove that the rolling, grassy Plains are not as empty as they look.

Echo Park - Michael Connelly

In 1993 Marie Gesto disappeared after walking out of a supermarket in Hollywood. The case was quickly elevated by LAPD commanders from the Missing Persons squad to the Homicide Division, where Harry Bosch was assigned to the case. But the young woman never turned up -dead or alive - and it was a case Bosch couldn't solve.

Thirteen years later Bosch is in the Open-Unsolved Unit, where he still keeps the Gesto file on his desk, when he gets a call from the DA's office. Raynard Waits, a man accused of two heinous killings, is willing to come clean in regard to several other murders in a deal to avoid the death penalty. One of those murders, he says, is the killing of Marie Gesto. Bosch is given the task of taking Waits' confession, and of making sure the killer is not scamming authorities to avoid a date with death.

In confirming the confession Bosch must get close to the man he has sought -and hated - for thirteen years. Bosch's whole being as a cop begins to crack when he comes to realise that he and his partner missed a clue back in 1993 that could have led them to Waits and would have stopped the nine murders that followed the killing of Marie Gesto.
