The Brass Verdict by Michael Connelly
ISBN-13: 978-1409102038
Mickey Haller, a Los Angeles defence attorney, inherits the clients of his dead colleague, Jerry Vincent. One of them is Hollywood mogul Walter Elliot, accused of brutally killing his wife and her lover. A win could propel him into the big league.
But Jerry Vincent was murdered. And detective Harry Bosch is convinced that the murderer was one of Vincent’s clients. Will Haller live to enjoy his new found success?
Not only does The Brass Verdict see the return of Mickey Haller, featured in one of Connelly’s most successful novels, The Lincoln Lawyer, but also Harry Bosch, a veteran of a dozen previous stories. As the story is narrated by Haller, we only see Bosch through Haller’s eyes, casting a familiar character in a new light.
As tightly plotted as his previous bestsellers, Connelly shows no signs of slipping. There are numerous twists and turns that should keep the reader guessing until the final pages. Newcomers may be advised to read The Lincoln Lawyer first. If you do, then it shouldn’t be long before you have to track down The Brass Verdict as well.
