　　紐約時報暢銷作家麥可．康納利交出生平第一部法律驚悚小說──故事極具煽動力，描述一位充滿犬儒主義色彩的辯護律師，很可能因為身上僅存的一絲絲正直而賠上性命。

　　米奇．海勒入行擔任律師以來，一直耽心就算有個清白的人站在他面前，他也看不出來。然而邪惡才是他應該當心的。海勒是一名林肯律師－－一個在林肯城市房車後座運籌帷幄、為法律食物鏈最底層的當事人打官司的刑事辯護律師，也難怪警察、檢察官、甚至他自己的幾個當事人都看不起他。從飛車黨到金光黨、酒駕肇事者和毒販，全都列在米奇．海勒的當事人名單上。

　　有一個比佛利山的富家子因毒打一名女子被捕時，海勒終於接到多年來的第一個大客戶。這是個大案子，他也相信會在法庭獲得勝訴。好不容易，他總算碰上一個可能真正清白的當事人。然而一名調查員因為即將揭發事實真相而遇害，海勒很快發現，他想在當事人身上找到的清白，卻已經把他帶到了一種如火焰般純粹的邪惡面前。為了要全身而退，海勒必須使出渾身解數，操弄一個他不再信仰的體系。

　　麥可．康納利是記者出身，曾經榮獲各項推理小說大獎。麥可．康納利的作品在全球發行超過兩千四百萬本，小說被翻譯成三十一種語言，現居佛羅里達州。

　　Mickey Haller has spent all his professional life afraid that he wouldn't recognize innocence if it stood right in front of him. But what he should have been on the watch for was evil.

　　Haller is a Lincoln Lawyer, a criminal defense attorney who operates out of the backseat of his Lincoln Town Car, traveling between the far-flung courthouses of Los Angeles to defend clients of every kind. Bikers, con artists, drunk drivers, drug dealers - they're all on Mickey Haller's client list. For him, the law is rarely about guilt or innocence - it's about negotiation and manipulation. Sometimes it's even about justice.

　　A Beverly Hills playboy arrested for attacking a woman he picked up in a bar chooses Haller to defend him, and Mickey has his first high-paying client in years. It is a defense attorney's dream, what they call a franchise case. And as the evidence stacks up, Haller comes to believe this may be the easiest case of his career.

　　Then someone close to him is murdered and Haller discovers that his search for innocence has brought him face-to-face with evil as pure as a flame. To escape without being burned, he must deploy every tactic, feint, and instinct in his arsenal - this time to save his own life.

　　The Lincoln Lawyer is a stunning display of novelistic mastery - as human, as gripping, and as whiplash-surprising as any novel yet from the writer Publishers Weekly has called "today's Dostoyevsky of crime literature."
