The Fifth Witness (2011) by Michael Connelly

Just finished this morning before coming to work, The Fifth Witness by Michael Connelly.  It is his latest in the Lincoln Lawyer series.

Due to fewer criminal cases, Mickey Haller has branched out into defending against foreclosures.  When one of his foreclosure clients is arrested for murder, Mickey and team take the case.  As they dig into the background of the victim, they expose the seamier side of the foreclosure business.

Very fast moving, dramatic in and out of the courtroom.  As Mickey says, "You never ask your client if he did it," but by the end, we know.

Don't miss the movie, The Lincoln Lawyer, with Matthew McConaughey, Marisa Tomei and Ryan Phillippe.
