Definitely Presumed Innocent by Scott Turow. It has great narrative style and excellent characterization of someone who has gone from prosecutor to defendant and who will do whatever it takes to get a not-guilty verdict. It also gives a very detailed look at the judicial system and infidelity, and it has an intriguing plot. In short, it is an amazing novel that works as both Literature and Entertainment. Unfortunately, nothing else I've read by Turow has even come close to the brilliance of Presumed Innocent.
I'm secretly suspicious that Innocent is just an attempt by an author whose sales are declining to recapture some of his former glory.
