Publisher's Summary

Longtime defense attorney Mickey Haller is recruited to change stripes and prosecute the high-profile retrial of a brutal child murder. After 24 years in prison, convicted killer Jason Jessup has been exonerated by new DNA evidence. Haller is convinced Jessup is guilty, and he takes the case on the condition that he gets to choose his investigator, LAPD Detective Harry Bosch.

Together, Bosch and Haller set off on a case fraught with political and personal danger. Opposing them is Jessup, now out on bail, a defense attorney who excels at manipulating the media, and a runaway eyewitness reluctant to testify after so many years.

With the odds and the evidence against them, Bosch and Haller must nail a sadistic killer once and for all. If Bosch is sure of anything, it is that Jason Jessup plans to kill again.

captivating

Michael Connelly keeps me captivated with this characters and subject matter.
Haller & Bosch make a great team. Hope he writes more with these two main heroes.

Incredible

Yet another page turning book in the Lincoln Lawyer series. I have to pace myself so I am not through them all in a week. Best series of my life!

very good

2023 review
Same as my original 4 star review. Except I'm irritated with the ending. We came so far!!! And then this ending!! Anyway, it was a great, fast-paced story with plenty of Haller and Bosch so no serious complaints from me. (Got worried when Bosch called Rachel Walling but thankfully she had limited page time). Onto the next!

A dim ending

Connelly is a genius as usual, bringing us deep in the action, the characters are well described as usual (pleasego read the earlier amazing books he made!). However, once you understand what is going on (mid-way through the book), you can guess the ending... and it is exactly what happens, which is kind of a letdown. I was expecting a major plot twist at the end but nothing. I guess the author wanted to keep it real... Good read anyway.

excellent narration!

Excellent narration! I can't decide which of Connellys characters I like best. I really enjoy when they all cross paths in one book.

Robotic Reading Ruins Reversal!

It was just ok. The story was pretty good but the narration was very robotic I felt. It made it very difficult to connect or care with the characters and their stories.
