Six months ago, Harry Bosch left the LAPD before they could fire him, and then hired maverick Defense Attorney Mickey Haller to sue the department for forcing him out. Although it wasn't the way he wanted to go, Harry has to admit that being out of the game has its benefits. Until Mickey asks him to help on one of his cases, and suddenly Harry is back where he belongs, right in the centre of a particularly puzzling murder mystery. The difference is, this time Harry is working for the defense, aiming to prevent the accused, Leland Foster, from being convicted. And not only does the prosecution seem to have a cast-iron case, but having crossed over to 'the dark side' as his former colleagues would put it, Harry is in danger of betraying the very principles he's lived by his whole career.
I was planning on reading 1984 next (as I mentioned in another thread) but my dad has thrust this book upon me, it's the fucking 20th in the series and I've never read any of them before.

I've not really read any of these types of books (except for the Rebus series) for absolutely ages and I don't really want to read this one though, my Dad enjoyed it though and I like to keep him interested in reading so I'm going to plough through this in the hope it sparks him into picking up another book.

it's 400 pages but it should only take me a few days, if I really throw myself into it then I could get it done before the weekend quite easily, only problem was that I was planning on getting back onto my piano, I've not played in ages so there is a good chance that'll take up a lot of my time
