Mickey Haller has fallen on tough times. He expands his business into foreclosure defense, only to see one of his clients accused of killing the banker she blames for trying to take away her home. Mickey puts his team into high gear to exonerate Lisa Trammel, even though the evidence and his own suspicions tell him his client is guilty. Soon after he learns that the victim had black market dealings of his own, Haller is assaulted, too, and he's certain he's on the right trail.

I loved the foreclosure fraud angle in this book - very timely and relevant. Connelly is supurb at writing both courtroom scenes and the back channel dealings that lead up to trial. An excellent addition to the Mickey Haller series.

A good read with good courtroom entertainment. I am not a proponet of a good read that has a bit too high a fog index such as pages wasted on the interplay with with the former wives. Doesn't add to a good courtroom story.

Definitely worth the read. Keeps you guessing to the end. Some good red herrings including the title of the book. I find myself liking the Mickey Haller character over Harry Bosch. I look forward to another book in the Lincoln Lawyer series.

Economic times HAS forced him?? really? This is the published blurb on the book. The death of grammar.

4 star for easy fast turner but 1 star for poor finish...hard to buy the defending Lawyers' sudden realization of the final moments of the murder, and regardless, how a petite person accomplished the flawless "kill".

Good, but not great.

I didn't enjoy this as much as any of his others. It was interesting to learn about the mortgage foreclosures but a lot of the book felt just like that - a lesson in learning about them, rather than a racy thriller.
