Publisher's summary

When Mickey Haller is invited by the Los Angeles County District Attorney to prosecute a case for him, he knows something strange is going on.

Mickey's a defense lawyer, one of the best in the business, and to switch sides like this would be akin to asking a fox to guard the hen-house. But the high-profile case of Jason Jessup, a convicted child-killer who spent almost 25 years on death row before DNA evidence freed him, is an intriguing one - particularly since the DA's determination to re-charge and re-try him for the same crime, seems doomed to failure.

Eager for the publicity and drawn to the challenge, Mickey takes the case, with Detective Harry Bosch on board as his lead investigator.

Good book. Occasional first person narrator confusion.

Another good Haller and Bosch amalgamation. Really good idea for Haller to cross over to the prosecution side. Only very slight criticism I had, and possibly due to the fact I tend to listen when walking my dog Bruno, is that occasionally the first person narrator became Bosch and because their personal curcumstances were simlar, ie single parent, daughters etc, it wasn’t always clear if Bosch or Haller. I prefer one story teller talking in third person regarding other characters.

But enjoyed the book.
