Rueben's Ramblings

On July 9, the new spin-off series Ballard (set in the world of the Bosch franchise) will debut online on Amazon Prime.

The series follows Detective Renée Ballard (Maggie Q) as she leads the LAPD’s new and underfunded cold case division, tackling the city’s most challenging long-forgotten crimes with empathy and relentless determination. As she peels back layers of crimes spanning decades, including a serial killer’s string of murders and a murdered John Doe, she soon uncovers a dangerous conspiracy within the LAPD. With the help of her volunteer team and retired detective Harry Bosch (Titus Welliver), Detective Ballard navigates personal trauma, professional challenges, and life-threatening dangers to expose the truth.

The cast includes Noah Bean, Victoria Morales, Ricardo Chavira, Rebecca Field, Michael Mosley and John Carroll Lynch.
