Publisher Description
Mickey Haller and Harry Bosch together take on a seemingly unwinnable case in blistering legal thriller from Number One bestseller Michael Connelly.
When defence lawyer Mickey Haller is invited by the Los Angeles County District Attorney to prosecute a case for him, he knows something strange is going on. Mickey's one of the best American legal brains in the business, and to switch sides likes this would be akin to asking a fox to guard the hen-house. But the high-profile case of Jason Jessup, a convicted child killer who spent almost 25 years on death row before DNA evidence freed him, is an intriguing one . . .
Eager for the publicity and drawn to the challenge, Mickey takes the case, with LAPD Detective Harry Bosch on board as his lead investigator. But as a new trial date is set, it starts to look like he's been set up. Mickey and Harry are going to have to dig deep into the past and find the truth about what really happened to the victim all those years ago in this nail-biting courtroom drama.
Customer Reviews
Interesting dual approach - Bosch & Haller
Un-put-down-able exciting fast moving thriller. They make a reluctant but effective duo.
1st rate Haller/Connelly
Missed this book first time round and just scooted on by - all the way to March 2025…. But so glad I went back to “ complete” the series, to date.
As always, excellent story with excellent characters, it’s no wonder these books make such a great transition to TV.

Loved it.
I wish I would have found Connolly’s books for me a lot sooner. I just can’t put it down. If I don’t read, I’ll think about it and want to get back to it. That hasn’t happened to me in a long time. And certainly not for crime novels!
I really like this Haller/Bosch crossover. I just hope that Haller can become one of the good guys as well!
Written as always: a fast paced, well thought through story with a not foreseeable twist. On to the next one!!
