They're called Lincoln Lawyers: the bottom of the legal food chain, the criminal defence attorneys who operate out of the back of a Lincoln Town Car, taking whatever cases the system throws in their path. When a Beverly Hills rich boy is arrested, Mickey Haller has his first high-paying client in years. The evidence mounts on the defence's side, and Haller might even be in the rare position of representing a client who is actually innocent. But when his case starts to fall apart, Haller quickly discovers that when you swim with the sharks, it's easy to wind up as prey.
