The Brass Verdict, by Michael Connelly:
When the defense attorney for a movie mogul accused of murder is himself murdered in legal thriller THE BRASS VERDICT, Mickey Haller of the Lincoln Lawyer series inherits the case, and Haller, just returning from drug rehab, needs to win it. But while well on his way to doing exactly that, he discovers that his client is not so innocent after all and corruption has risen to the very top of the Los Angeles judicial system. Why, Haller wonders after falling into a trap that would make him the next victim, did he ever ignore his own mantra: Everybody lies?
