‘Connelly excels – easily surpassing even John Grisham in the building of courtroom suspense’ LOS ANGELES TIMES

In tough times, crime still pays. For defense attorney Mickey Haller – a.k.a. The Lincoln Lawyer – most of his time is now spent not keeping people out of jail, but in their homes.

Lisa Trammel was Mickey’s first foreclosure client. For eight months, he’s stopped the bank from taking her house. But when the bank’s CEO is found beaten to death, Lisa is the prime suspect.

As Haller steps back into the theatre of a murder trial, he will learn some shocking truths about the victim, his client, and himself.

Mickey prepares to mount the best defense of his career – but this is a trial where the last surprise comes after the verdict is in . . .

‘Connelly is the best of the best’ RICHARD OSMAN

‘A master’ STEPHEN KING
