The Fifth Witness by Michael Connelly

Powerful reading!
Brilliantly told!
Mickey Haller is working mortgage foreclosures. He becomes the criminal defense attorney for a new foreclosure client. A murder that draws attention to one of the great financial catastrophes of our time. Haller investigates and finds the greed of a foreclosure mill. He establishes a strong alternate possibility to present to the jury. There are compelling characters, courtroom strategy,twists, turns,and two surprises in the last few pages. Have we seen the last of the defense attorney who works from the back seat of his Lincoln???
A FIVE STAR read all the way to the end!!!!
