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.

  • Best Bet in a Read

    This is a Lincoln Lawyer book, and for anyone familiar, no need to expound. However, this one has started with so much suspense and intrigue, I can not wait to get into the rest of it!!! I will always “see” Matthew McConoughey as Mickey Haller, and having such a fantastic face to put to the character makes it all the easier to read.
