So, after reading this page turner, I'm feeling compelled to reduce a lot of my 5 Star reviews to 4 or 4.5 Stars. Connelly has outdone even himself. This is my first Mickey Haller novel, though I've seen plenty of him in the Bosch Universe. Normally when a book shuttles between protagonists and is told in segments, I fail to get absorbed, but in this day and age, I read episodically, both due to other commitments, as well as that stories don't rope me in as much anymore... for the most part. Once this book got its head of steam, I was hooked, and after I got off work today, I sat down and read about the last 100 pages or so til the finish. Highest rating for story, narrative and keeping me tightly buckled and plastered in. Thanks also to the writer for his acknowledgements section.
Resurrection Walk sees the welcome return of defence lawyer Mickey Haller.
Mickey has been inundated with letters from convicts asking him to look into their convictions, as they are innocent and have been wrongfully imprisoned.
Mickey enlists the help of his half brother, ex LAPD Homicide detective Harry Bosch, to go through the letters, and find one that he feels is worth looking into.
Resurrection Walk is a tension filled, action packed read that thoroughly engaged me from chapter one. Haller and Bosch make a good team, and there are a plethora of interesting characters, not least the lawyer for the prosecution, who has the unenviable job of going up against The Lincoln Lawyer.
If it's murder, intrigue and courtroom shenanigans you're after, this is the book for you.
