The Reversal

In a shocking twist, defence lawyer Mickey Haller is invited by the Los Angeles County District Attorney to prosecute a high-profile case, forcing him to cross the courtroom aisle. The case involves Jason Jessup, a convicted child killer who spent nearly 25 years on death row before DNA evidence led to his exoneration. Now, the DA seeks a new trial, and wants Haller, the 'Lincoln Lawyer,' to lead the prosecution. Intrigued by the challenge and the moral complexity of the situation, Haller accepts, bringing his half-brother, LAPD Detective Harry Bosch, onboard as his lead investigator. As Mickey and Harry delve into the cold case, they uncover a web of deceit and manipulation that suggests Jessup may not be as innocent as the DNA evidence implied, or that they themselves are pawns in a larger game. This blistering legal thriller pits two of Michael Connelly's most iconic characters against a seemingly unwinnable case, forcing them to confront the blurry lines between justice, vengeance, and the truth in a courtroom drama that will keep readers on the edge.
