Season 7 of Bosch (TV Series) was announced in February 2020.[1] The season was the series last but was followed by the spin-off series Bosch: Legacy. Season 7 consisted of 8 episodes. The season aired on Amazon prime video June 25 2021.
Development[]
The final season drew plot elements from the novels The Concrete Blonde (1994) and The Burning Room (2014). Harry Bosch and Jerry Edgar were planned to be "pursuing two separate but perilous murder investigations that will take them to the highest levels of white collar crime and the deadly depths of the street level drug trade."[1]
Elements of The Concrete Blonde were used in the first season, particularly the court room scenes where Bosch was defending a civil claim for shooting a suspect.
Michael Connelly commented “I’m proud of what we have accomplished with Bosch and look forward to completing the story in season 7. It’s bittersweet but all good things come to an end and I am happy that we will be able to go out the way we want to. This started seven years ago with showrunner Eric Overmyer and me writing the pilot, we plan to write the last episode together as well. We’ll leave behind the longest running show so far on Amazon and it will be there to be discovered by new viewers for as long as people are streaming. That is amazing to me. The other thing is that we would not have come all this way without Titus Welliver. There could not have been a better actor to play this role or a better team player to build this show around. He’ll be Harry Bosch for the ages.”[1]

Trivia[]
Author Michael Connelly appears in an uncredited cameo in S7 E8, 20'12", seated at a table at the Musso & Frank Grill behind the bar where Bosch and colleagues are celebrating/commiserating their reassignment. It's a remarkably similar image of Connelly photographed in the same restaurant in an article appearing in the June 25, 2021 edition of the L.A. Times ('Bosch' Season 7: How Amazon series finale sets up new show - Los Angeles Times (latimes.com)')
