    Prawnik z lincolna (ang. The Lincoln Lawyer) – powieść sensacyjna Michaela Connelly’ego z 2005 roku, pierwsza z serii książek o adwokacie Mickeym Hallerze. Mickey Haller nie należy do adwokackiej elity Los Angeles. Jego biuro mieści się na tylnym siedzeniu lincolna (jednego z czterech), którym jeździ od sądu do sądu, by bronić kolejnych szemranych klientów: dilerów narkotykowych, pijanych kierowców i recydywistów. W systemie sprawiedliwości Mickeya kwestie winy i niewinności schodzą na dalszy plan; liczą się jedynie skuteczne negocjacje i manipulacje. Nieoczekiwanie trafia mu się zlecenie, o jakim marzy każdy prawnik: obrona zamożnego playboya z Beverly Hills, oskarżonego o pobicie i gwałt. Początkowo sprawa wygląda na banalnie prostą. Gdy jednak Haller zagłębia się w zagmatwaną przeszłość oskarżonego, na jaw wychodzą niepokojące fakty. Mickey zaczyna zdawać sobie sprawę, iż staje oko w oko ze złem w najczystszej postaci. On i jego bliscy znajdą się w śmiertelnym niebezpieczeństwie...

  3. When Mickey Haller is invited by the Los Angeles County District Attorney to prosecute a case for him, he knows something strange is going on. Mickey's a defense lawyer, one of the best in the business, and to switch sides like this would be akin to asking a fox to guard the hen-house. But the high-profile case of Jason Jessup, a convicted child-killer who spent almost 25 years on death row before DNA evidence freed him, is an intriguing one - particularly since the DA's determination to re-charge and re-try him for the same crime seems doomed to failure. Eager for the publicity and drawn to the challenge, Mickey takes the case, with Detective Harry Bosch on board as his lead investigator. But as a new trial date is set, it starts to look like he's been set up, with the renewed prosecution merely a tactic to prevent Jessup from successfully suing the state and county for millions of dollars. To avoid humiliation, Mickey and Harry are going to have to dig deep into the past and find the truth about Melissa Landy and what really happened to her all those years ago.

  5. The 'Lincoln Lawyer' grapples with a haunting case in a gripping thriller from bestselling author Michael Connelly. Mickey Haller gets the text 'Call me ASAP - 187', and the California penal code for murder immediately gets his attention. Suddenly, Mickey's not just trying to get his client off a murder charge, but there is a more personal connection: the victim was Gloria Dayton - his own former client, a prostitute he thought he had rescued and put on the straight and narrow. Far from saving her, Haller may have been her downfall. Haunted by the ghosts of his own past, and with his own guilt or redemption on the line, he desperately needs to find out who Gloria really was and who, ultimately, was responsible for her death.

    Defense attorney Mickey Haller is back, taking the long shot cases, where the chances of winning are one in a million. After getting a wrongfully convicted man out of prison, he is inundated with pleas from incarcerated people claiming innocence. He enlists his half brother, retired LAPD Detective Harry Bosch, to weed through the letters, knowing most claims will be false. Bosch pulls a needle from the haystack: a woman in prison for killing her husband, a sheriff’s deputy, but who still maintains her innocence. Bosch reviews the case and sees elements that don’t add up, and a sheriff’s department intent on bringing quick justice in the killing of one of its own. Now Haller has an uphill battle in court, a David fighting Goliaths to vindicate his client. The path for both lawyer and investigator is fraught with danger from those who don’t want the case reopened and will stop at nothing to keep the Haller-Bosch dream team from finding the truth.
