Book Review: "Michael Connelly's "The Fifth Witness"

By
Real Estate Agent with Julia B. Fee Sotheby's International Realty #30RO0980081

As a die hard Michael Connolly fan, I could not wait to read this book featuring the character, Mickey Haller. As a Defense Attorney, he isn't interested in whether his client is innocent or guilty, but just offering the best defense.... This is such a topical book, and could be happening around our corner as we speak.... foreclosures, the companies which initiate the proceedings, and the unhappy and angry home-owners.... When a banker is murdered, and his client is charged, Mickey steps in with his usual wit, intelligence and intuitiveness for the truth... SO many twists and turns... with a great ending. Cannot wait for the next book in the series!

                                                         

 This was published in April,2011 and the fictional character, Mickey Haller mentions having Matthew McConaughey play him if a movie of the case he is trying evolves into that.... A movie within a movie as we all know Matthew McConaughey does play Mickey Haller in the first of the series "The Lincoln Lawyer."  It's already on DVD, so it wasn't a hit.. have not seen it yet but that book was/is excellent too.

I saw “The Lincoln Lawyer” and thought it was a pretty good movie. I tend to go to movies rather than reading books. It takes so long to read books!
