Reviewed by Brenda Ballard for Readers' Favorite

Defense attorney Mickey Haller represents the scum of the earth, the forlorn and the disparaged. Once in a while, he catches a break and gets an a-lister as a client. Things that seem too good to be true are usually like this case. It isn't long before Mickey Haller finds himself in a web of deceit that only gets darker and closer to home. Soon he finds himself in a race to get ahead of the game, no matter what the stakes.

Michael Connelly has done an amazing job creating a story that is so life-like that in a matter of moments I found myself completely enthralled in the next twist. Only after I had listened to the entire 10 cd audio book did I learn that the author has created a series with Mickey Haller. I was overjoyed!

Adam Grupper's voice comes through the speakers so true to character - you know, the one with the dark coat and hat who takes no flack. As he assumes other characters, he does so just enough to make the distinction but not distract from the story.

Not only did I listen to this every moment I was in the car, I brought it in to work with my laptop and listened while doing simple paperwork. The days went by so quickly, my co-workers turning now and then to see why I was chuckling at the great one-liners or sucking in air in surprise.

Michael Connelly has not just one new fan -- he has the staff in my office, now, too!
