Summary
Not only that, but Vincent was about to go to bat for Walter Elliot, the Hollywood mogul accused of brutally slaying his wife and her lover, in a trial that promises big fees and an even bigger place in the media spotlight. If Mickey could find the magic bullet and win that one against the odds, he'd really be back in the big leagues.
The only problem is that Vincent was murdered, shot at close range in his office garage, and the detective handling the case - a certain Harry Bosch - is convinced the killer must be one of Vincent's clients. Suddenly Jerry Vincent's legacy is beginning to look more like a poisoned chalice, and Mickey is faced with the biggest challenge of his career: how to successfully defend a client who might just be planning to murder him.

Simply the best.
Another outstanding story of Micky Holler and Michael Connelly. Another fine example of how to tell a mother load of legal twists, turns and intrigues. M.C's characters are very believable and the dramas are completely immersive, Another excellent page turner. I have no compunction in recommending this one to everyone, these can be read in any order; however, when read in order the continuity of back stories and characters add to the listener's overall enjoyment. I have listened to about 12 of M.C's novels and each one delivers completely, if you are a newbie to M.C's books treat yourself to a definite roller coaster ride of brilliant characters and storyline that delivers the goods in truckloads of excitement.

Excellent
I do love a court room drama, and this is damn good. Like the strategy planning and always wonder how true it is....

Another excellent Michael Connelly thriller
This is a follow-on from "the Lincoln Lawyer", the main character being the defence lawyer Micky Haller, but this time the author also weaves in his long time protaganist, Harry Bosch - this works very well. More generally, the book is right up to Michael Connelly's high standard - meticulous plotting, clever storyline and denouement, well written, and well drawn characters and plenty of pace - excellent stuff.
I've not heard the narrator before; he's not as good as the excellent Jeff Harding who has narrated a lot of Connelly books, but he does a perfectly decent job - good sense of pace and tone, good characterisation - perhaps at times a little over-dramatic.
Overall strongly recommended, particularly if you are already a Michael Connelly fan.

Hooked on Haller
A longtime fan of Harry Bosch, I only discovered Mickey Haller a month or so ago. Since then I've listened to three. A strong storyline, reinforced by an excellent performance from Peter Giles, although he needs to work on his English accent! Love the chemistry between Bosch and Haller. Have just downloaded The Reversal.....

Excellent story and brilliant vocalisation
A clever and engaging story, with good dramatic turns.
Clues to events were present but well masked at times, and the whole book was a well planned and composed one.
The reading was very well done, with the characterisations clear and differentiated but not overdone.

For courtroom drama fans!
I love Mickey Haller books - great plots with lots of twists and turns. This one is really well read - Peter Giles has a great voice for it and I couldn't wait to get back in the car for the next instalment! (Even had to sit in the car park at work once or twice to get to the next bit). You do have to suspend disbelief occasionally - the judge sometimes seems to let him get away with murder, but just enjoy!

Enjoyable
The Mickey Haller stories are fun and I am sure the procedural details are basically accurate, given the author's background.
This one is good, but one of the minor characters is supposed to be a female Londoner, and she has an Australian accent ( I think - anyway, it's not English) and sounds like a man. It's the only real criticism I would make.

Anonymous.....sounds like
Listening to the whole Bosch series, this was a great addition to his biography. Narrator was excellent. Loved the last 10 mins.
