They just keep getting better!! Mickey Haller never lets me down! I’m listening to the audiobooks & they’re really good.. I would definitely suggest starting with the first 1 though. While each could be read as a standalone- there is a core group of (fantastic!) characters & I feel like their evolution adds another level to these legal thrillers.

Holy Moly! What a book! My favorite Mickey Haller book yet! I'll admit it started off a bit slow for me, but soon turned into one h*ll of a could-not-put-it-down ride! An absolutely fantastic Must Read in the series and Harry Bosch Universe (Harry makes a cameo appearance). My love affair with the series (& Harry) continues. ...more

Really liked this. I can even forgive the first person a little bit in this case.

Mickey in disgrace with his teenage daughter after his failed run at getting elected to the District Attorney's office, gets a call to defend a man accused of murder, the referral comes from the woman he is accused of killing who was a former friend and client of Mickey's.

For the first time in a while, it seems that Mickey has a client who can actually pay her for his services. However, nothing ever goes smoothly f ...more

I listened to this one and really enjoyed the narrator and the story.

The title of the book was mentioned more than once in the book, so you really knew where the title came from. Mickey Haller is defending a computer pimp for killing one of the girls he ran the website for. He is not your regular pimp either, because he was gay. Keeping the defendant safe in jail is hard to do and it took a toll on his client.

There is really a lot of action in this one. I am giving this 5 out of 5 stars.
