Book Description:
Things are finally looking up for defense attorney Mickey Haller. After two years of wrong turns, Haller is back in the courtroom. When Hollywood lawyer Jerry Vincent is murdered, Haller inherits his biggest case yet: the defense of Walter Elliott, a prominent studio executive accused of murdering his wife and her lover. But as Haller prepares for the case that could launch him into the big time, he learns that Vincent's killer may be coming for him next.
Enter Harry Bosch. Determined to find Vincent's killer, he is not opposed to using Haller as bait. But as danger mounts and the stakes rise, these two loners realize their only choice is to work together.

Sherry R. (
Connelly shifts from the police department to the courtroom in this follow-up to The Lincoln Lawyer featuring Mickey Haller with plenty of Harry Bosch moments thrown in. A lot of fun for those who have read many in the Connelly series and now get to see these two protagonists intersect. Strong plot but not as clever as The Lincoln Lawyer.
3.5 stars out of 5.
This book was very good. It tells the story of what happens when Mickey Haller team up to find out what really happened after Haller's collegue is murdered.
Judy B. (Another great book by Connelly. This one links Harry Bosch and Mickey Haller (The Lincoln Lawyer) in a suspense-filled murder investigation and trial. A bit slow-moving but held my interest throughout and the ending was superb. I felt as if I were in the courtroom during the trial scenes. Highly recommended.
Gerald P. (Perhaps not my favorite Bosch but damn good! Having read all of MC's work I usually end up longing for more about my favorite detective since Lew Archer, Harry Bosch. But alas the work, until near the end, focuses on the doings of Harry's half brother, Mickey Haller, an attorney who I would love to have on my side.
Good courtroom action and lots of inner workings about how attorneys get things done. Not quite in the 'Can't put it down category' but worthy of our time. I just want more about Bosch....
Maybe Connelly's best work. A real page turner. I put off several projects just to finish it!
Stephanie S. (Harry Bosch and Mickey Hallert come into accidental meeting and end up having to work together to find a killer. Mickey is back after a year's sabbatical and although he planned to slowly get back to work, he ends up with 31 cases all at once when his colleague ends up murdered. The trick is to avoid getting killed himself. Great exciting read and about 5 twists in the plot.
