Summary When cynical Los Angeles defense attorney Mickey Haller lands the lucrative case of Louis Roulet, a wealthy playboy accused of attempted murder, he thinks it is the jackpot of his career. Operating out of the back of his Lincoln Town Car, Haller is accustomed to defending low-life clients, but his worldview is shattered when he uncovers a terrifying link between Roulet and a past case that wrongly imprisoned an innocent man. Trapped by attorney-client privilege, Haller must orchestrate a dangerous courtroom strategy to outsmart his own psychopathic client, protect his family, and secure true justice without getting himself killed.
