“Book of the unclaimed dead.” (Season 4. Episode 10). Eddie Chin is a rogue agent from China. He was photographed by Eleanor at that poker game. He hired two assassins to kill her who were later murdered themselves. Eddie flew back to China on a private plane. Bosch believes that an FBI agent put Eleanor’s life on the line to get Eddie. There really is no justice for her. 

Chief Irving defends Bosch against police commissioner Bradley Walker. He tells him that an immigrant was hired from one of Bradley’s construction sites to throw a fire bomb at police. Bradley denies involvement as that immigrant is deported from the U.S. Irving makes a move to help a news reporter investigate the relationship between Bradley and the Los Angeles major. 

Bradley wants to remove Bosch from the task force because he might be too close to him. He is because he discovers how Bradley killed Howard Elias. Bosch and agent Snyder then find the video that Howard had in his possession. It shows how two LAPD detectives tortured the man who they intended to frame. Bosch secretly gives that video to a lawyer with Honey Chandler as a witness. 

Bradley goes into the tunnel to retrieve the gun he killed Howard with. Bosch follows him and reveals who Bradley had murdered, including Bosch’s mother. Bradley admits to everything without knowing that Jerry heard it all as a witness. Bosch finally catches the man who killed his mother. (This was a fantastic TV season).

The other had long black hair, like in the security video Bosch had found. They have to find him and ask why both had gunned down Eleanor.

Detective Lincoln comes clean on why she tried to frame detective Sheehan by tampering with evidence. She blames Bradley Walker (police commissioner) as the killer of Howard Elias. He was going to end the cash kickbacks after winning lawsuits against the LAPD. Lincoln got rid of all evidence, but the secret video Elias had in his possession. They have nothing on Walker to arrest him. It turns out that Bosch was Walker’s alibi the night Howard was murdered.
