What is the author's style in The Black Ice by Michael Connelly?

The language of the novel consists mostly of simple English. Harry Bosch is a cop, therefore some of the dialogue includes slang and cop lingo that is easily explained within the text. The novel also includes a trip to Mexico, and there are a few words in Spanish. These words are quickly explained within the text because the narrator, Harry, does not speak much Spanish; therefore, he is almost as clueless as most readers.
