The Brass Verdict is the second title in Michael Connelly's shorter, but probably as well known and awarded, Mickey Haller series. It is £0.99 today as part of the Kindle UK Daily Deal. Per SYKM, the first title in the series, The Lincoln Lawyer, won or was nominated for six awards (!) and this title itself won the 2009 Anthony Award for Best Mystery. And Harry Bosch is in this book too...enough that SYKM calls it the 14th in the Harry Bosch series as well.

A superb novel featuring both Mickey Haller and Harry Bosch from the No. 1 bestselling author of The Lincoln Lawyer and The Gods of Guilt.

Defence lawyer Mickey Haller has had some problems, but now he's put all that behind him and is ready to resume his career. Then another lawyer, Vincent, dies, and Haller gets an unexpected windfall: he inherits all Vincent's clients, putting his stalled career back on track at a stroke.

Not only that, but Vincent had taken on a high-profile and potentially lucrative murder case. It'll be a trial that promises big fees and an even bigger place in the media spotlight - and if Mickey can win against the odds, he'll really be back in the big leagues.

The only problem is the detective handling the case - a certain Harry Bosch - is convinced the killer must be one of Vincent's clients. Suddenly Mickey is faced with the biggest challenge of his career: how to defend a client successfully who might just be planning to murder him.
