A good narrator, like this book's, doesn't need a "soundtrack" to pump up the drama, it is already in his voice.) Great courtroom dramas give you a peek into a world that is alien to most of us.

This is great fiction that will keep you riveted with its terrific plot, excellent production, (a teensy bit too much music at key narration points. To escape without being burned, he must deploy every tactic, feint, and instinct in his arsenal - this time to save his own life. Then someone close to him is murdered and Haller discovers that his search for innocence has brought him face-to-face with evil as pure as a flame. And as the evidence stacks up, Haller comes to believe this may be the easiest case of his career. It is a defense attorney's dream, what they call a franchise case.

Sometimes it's even about justice.Ī Beverly Hills playboy arrested for attacking a woman he picked up in a bar chooses Haller to defend him, and Mickey has his first high-paying client in years. For him, the law is rarely about guilt or innocence, it's about negotiation and manipulation. Bikers, con artists, drunk drivers, drug dealers - they're all on Mickey Haller's client list. Mickey Haller is a Lincoln Lawyer, a criminal defense attorney who operates out of the backseat of his Lincoln Town Car, traveling between the far-flung courthouses of Los Angeles to defend clients of every kind. The best-selling legal thriller - and CBS TV series - has charismatic defense attorney Mickey Haller taking on a slam-dunk court case involving a Beverly Hills playboy - but as it spirals into a nightmare, he finds himself in a fight for his life.
