A trial is a contest of lies. Yes, everybody lies in a trial and that's what is fascinating. Recently out of rehab, lawyer Mickey Haller inherits the clients of an old colleague and finds himself defending Walter Elliot, a Hollywood mogul, accused of murdering his wife and her lover. Connelly's famous cop is here, too, Hieronymus Bosch, and he and Haller are about to be linked in a surprising way. A very good read.
