Another excellent book in the series, it does a fantastic job laying out the difference between not guilty and innocent. Mickey Haller’s client are usually uniquely despicable and the defense client in this book is no different. It is always interesting to see the depths and the flexible boundaries Mickey Haller skirts to raise doubt in a trial.
With The Fifth Witness it’s beginning to seem that Connelly can do no wrong. This latest novel is as shamelessly entertaining as its predecessors, with the customary skilful plotting even more burnished. As well as making some telling points about the world we live in this is a reminder that in the crime fiction stakes Connelly is comfortably in the upper bracket. “With me, it’s don’t ask, don’t tell,” Mickey tells the starry-eyed Bullock, who wonders why this junkyard dog never asks his client if she’s innocent. Though the answer isn’t as mysterious as you might like, the courtroom scenes—thrust, parry, struggle for every possible advantage—are grueling enough for the most exacting connoisseur of legal intrigue.

Mickey Haller has fallen on tough times. He expands his business into foreclosure defense, only to see one of his clients accused of killing the banker she blames for trying to take away her home. Mickey puts his team into high gear to exonerate Lisa Trammel, even though the evidence and his own suspicions tell him his client is guilty. Soon after he learns that the victim had black market dealings of his own, Haller is assaulted, too, and he's certain he's on the right trail. No library descriptions found. |

The ending is satisfactory, provided you can plow through the speed bumps to get there. One of the key problems for Connelly is that even after four novels his protagonist Mickey Haller is just not as compelling as Detective Harry Bosch.
