Michael Connelly writes a legal thriller introducing us
to his newest character Mickey Haller, a defense attorney who drives around in
a Lincoln conducting business from all over Los Angeles. While he believes his
job is a noble one, he also believes he should be paid for his services. And if
the right gig comes his way, he expects to be paid big. He thinks he found one
in the case of Louis Roulet, a rich realtor accused of attacking a woman in her
apartment and trying to kill her. It should be easy money because the girl is a
prostitute with zero credibility. There’s just one problem. Louise might be
more dangerous than Mickey could have realized. If you like fast-paced books
with an exciting mystery and a very likeable hero then this should be right up
your alley. It’s a solid thriller and proof that Mr. Connelly is a fine storyteller.
