Publisher's Synopsis
When Mickey Haller is invited to prosecute a case for the LA District Attorney, he knows something strange is going on. Mickey's a defence lawyer, and to switch sides like this would be akin to asking a fox to guard a hen-house. But the high-profile case of a convicted child killer who spent almost 25 years on death row before DNA evidence freed him is an intriguing one... So Mickey takes the case, with Detective Harry Bosch on board as his investigator. But as a new trial date is set, it looks like he's been set up. Mickey and Harry are going to have to dig deep into the past to find the truth about what really happened all those years ago.
