The Harry Bosch Novels, Volume 4 Quotes

“There was one story after the traffic report that caught his attention. An octopus on display at a city aquarium in San Pedro had apparently killed itself by pulling a water circulation tube out of its tank fitting with one of its tentacles. The tank emptied and the octopus died. Environmental groups were calling it suicide, a desperate protest by the octopus against its captivity. Only in L.A., Bosch thought as he turned the radio off. A place so desperate even the marine life was killing itself.”
― Michael Connelly, The Harry Bosch Novels, Volume 4: The Narrows, The Closers, Echo Park
