The Big Picture The Bosch spin-off series, which will star Maggie Q as Detective Renée Ballard, will begin production soon, but we've now learned that the show is set to cross over already with Bosch: Legacy, according to the author of the novels upon which the shows are based, Michael Connelly. In a chat with the Tampa Bay Times, Connelly revealed that both shows will take inspiration from the same book, Desert Star, from 2022.
"That book has what I call the double helix structure. It has two cases wrapped around each other. So it’s not going to be the whole season, but one part is going to be the main arc for Ballard, and one is the main arc for Legacy. There’s also things in earlier Ballard books, cases and L.A. politics and stuff, that are in the first season. It’s like Bosch — anything that’s in these books, the scriptwriters can take.
In fact, the entire first season was based around the cold case of a young boy found murdered in the Hollywood Hills. For those who aren't aware, a cold case refers to a criminal investigation that has remained unsolved for a considerable period after being initiated, with no significant leads or active suspects to follow. These cases are often left inactive due to a lack of evidence or new information.
