    El abogado defensor Michael Haller siempre ha creído que sabría reconocer a un cliente inocente. Pero la defensa de Louis Roulet, un rico heredero detenido por el intento de asesinato de una prostituta, da un giro a la trayectoria del abogado. Por una parte, supone defender a alguien presuntamente inocente; por otra, implica unos ingresos desacostumbrados. Poco a poco, y gracias a la ayuda de Raul Levin (investigador con el que colabora habitualmente), Haller descubre cabos sueltos en el caso Roulet. «Ningún cliente asusta más que un hombre inocente», J. Michael Haller, abogado penalista.

    Para el abogado Michael Haller, defender al magnate de Hollywood Walter Elliot de la acusación de doble asesinato es lo que en la jerga de su oficio se llama un filón: mucho dinero, publicidad gratuita durante el juicio y una investigación plagada de contradicciones y muy fácil de desmontar. Pero cuando los filones son una trampa, pueden acabar con tu carrera profesional y, lo que es peor, con tu vida.

  3. When 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 a defense lawyer, one of the best in the business, and to switch sides like 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 - particularly since the DA's determination to re-charge and re-try him for the same crime seems doomed to failure. Eager for the publicity and drawn to the challenge, Mickey takes the case, with 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, with the renewed prosecution merely a tactic to prevent Jessup from successfully suing the state and county for millions of dollars. To avoid humiliation, Mickey and Harry are going to have to dig deep into the past and find the truth about Melissa Landy and what really happened to her all those years ago.

    In tough times, even the criminals are making cut-backs, it seems. Right now, the most significant part of defence lawyer Mickey Haller's business is not about keeping clients out of jail but keeping a roof over their heads, as the foreclosure industry booms. Lisa Trammel had been a client of Mickey's for eight months, and although so far he'd managed to stop the bank from taking her house, the strain and sense of injustice are beginning to take their toll, and the bank had recently got a restraining order to prevent her protesting against their fraudulent practices. But now the bank's CEO has been found with a bullet in his brain, and Lisa is about to be indicted for murder. For Mickey, it's back to what he does best on the biggest stage of all, but if he thought defending Lisa Trammel was going to be a walk in the park, he'd be wrong. Not only is he about to learn some startling truths about his client, but also about himself, and by the time the verdict is in, Mickey's whole world will have been turned upside down.

    Mickey Haller gets the text, "Call me ASAP - 187," and the California penal code for murder immediately gets his attention. Murder cases have the highest stakes and the biggest paydays, and they always mean Haller has to be at the top of his game. When Mickey learns that the victim was his own former client, a prostitute he thought he had rescued and put on the straight and narrow path, he knows he is on the hook for this one. He soon finds out that she was back in LA and back in the life. Far from saving her, Mickey may have been the one who put her in danger. Haunted by the ghosts of his past, Mickey must work tirelessly and bring all his skill to bear on a case that could mean his ultimate redemption or proof of his ultimate guilt. Read by Peter Giles
