INSPIRATION FOR THE ORIGINAL SERIES THE LINCOLN LAWYER—THE #1 TV SHOW ON NETFLIX

Lincoln Lawyer Mickey Haller is back on the job in this heart-stopping thriller from a renowned #1 New York Times bestselling author.

“One of the finest legal thrillers of the last decade” —Associated Press

On the night he celebrates a big win, defense attorney Mickey Haller is pulled over by police, who find the body of a former client in the trunk of his Lincoln. Haller is immediately charged with murder but can’t post the exorbitant $5 million bail slapped on him by a vindictive judge.

Mickey elects to represent himself and is forced to mount his defense from his jail cell in the Twin Towers Correctional Center in downtown Los Angeles. All the while he needs to look over his shoulder—as an officer of the court he is an instant target, and he makes few friends when he reveals a corruption plot within the jail.

But the bigger plot is the one against him. Haller knows he’s been framed, whether by a new enemy or an old one. As his trusted team, including his half-brother, Harry Bosch, investigates, Haller must use all his skills in the courtroom to counter the damning evidence against him.

Even if he can obtain a not-guilty verdict, Mickey understands that it won’t be enough. In order to be truly exonerated, he must find out who really committed the murder and why. That is the law of innocence.

In his highest stakes case yet, the Lincoln Lawyer fights for his life and proves again why he is “a worthy colleague of Atticus Finch . . . in the front of the pack in the legal thriller game” (Los Angeles Times).

Critic reviews

“The so-called Lincoln Lawyer... turns in another dazzling courtroom performance."—Marilyn Stasio, New York Times Book Review

“A wonderfully twisty legal thriller… As always, Connelly does a splendid job with both the courtroom drama and the suspenseful, often dangerous process behind it.”—Colette Bancroft, Tampa Bay Times

“Superlative... A supremely intelligent, well-paced courtroom thriller by a modern master.” —Publisher's Weekly (starred review)

Please no music

The background was very distracting from the story. I do not want sound effects, I want to use my own imagination to go with the story. Please just stop trying to disrupt the simplicity of a well read book.

Great Story but Distracting Background Music

The story and reading were great but the background music was very annoying and made it difficult to hear the narrator.

Another excellent read

Fast passed with interesting twists, this book maintains the high standard set by the author.

Great novel!!!

Fast Pace! Michael Connelly is a genius. It was a real pleasure listening to this book.

Another Awesome Haller Story

I really enjoyed this Audible version w/music that peaked @ both the highs & lows. Wonderful performance & another great Haller story by Michael Connelly

Throughly Enjoyed the book

I really enjoy all the Michael Connelly books and find myself into the story so far I’m not aware of my surroundings. I was able to feel how it would feel to be unfairly accused and be locked away, trusting others to get me free. Frightening! And I enjoyed his love for his first family

love this book!!

I binge read it all day Sunday and finished it this morning. I bought it last year and didn't write anything, I had Delta and forgot. I look for new Michael Connelly books, every few months to see if I missed any new releases!! I would rather re read a Bosch or Lincoln lawyer book that read something mediocre!

Twister

The book kept my attention without having any outlandish plots. I tried to find time to listen to it.

Great legal/courtroom procedural

I always enjoy Michael Connelly, but this one was hard to put down. The courtroom drama felt suspenseful!

Good story decent finish

Liked the story a lot. Good suspense until the end. The Finish was bit disappointing
