The Lincoln Lawyer

In the bestselling legal thriller, charismatic defense attorney Mickey Haller takes on a slam-dunk court case involving a Beverly Hills playboy, but as the case turns into a nightmare, he finds himself fighting for his life. Mickey Haller is a Lincoln Lawyer, a criminal defense attorney who works from the backseat of his Lincoln Town Car, traveling between Los Angeles' far-flung courthouses to defend clients of all kinds. Mickey Haller's clients include bikers, con artists, drunk drivers, and drug dealers. For him, the law is about negotiating and manipulating rather than about guilt or innocence. It's even about justice at times.

Mickey gets his first high-paying client in years when he defends a Beverly Hills playboy arrested for assaulting a woman he met in a bar. What is known as a franchise case is a defense attorney's dream. As the evidence mounts, Haller begins to suspect that this may be the easiest case of his career. Then someone close to him is murdered, and Haller realizes that his quest for innocence has led him face to face with evil as pure as a flame. To avoid being burned, he must use every tactic, feint, and instinct he possesses—this time to save his own life.
