The Drop (Harry Bosch #15) by Michael Connelly

Harry Bosch has been given three years before he must retire
from the LAPD, and he wants cases more fiercely than ever.
In one morning, he gets two. 

DNA from a 1989 rape and murder matches a 29-year-old convicted rapist.
Was he an eight-year-old killer or has something gone terribly wrong in
the new Regional Crime Lab? The latter possibility could compromise all
of the lab's DNA cases currently in court.

Then Bosch and his partner are called to a death scene fraught with
internal politics. Councilman Irvin Irving's son jumped or was pushed
from a window at the Chateau Marmont. Irving, Bosch's longtime nemesis,
has demanded that Harry handle the investigation.

Relentlessly pursuing both cases, Bosch makes two chilling discoveries:
a killer operating unknown in the city for as many as three decades,
and a political conspiracy that goes back into the dark history of the
police department.
