BOOK REVIEW
 
The Fifth Witness
by Michael Connelly
 
This is a new Mickey Haller doing his thing as the Lincoln Lawyer tale.  Funny how this book and the movie from the previous Lincoln Lawyer book came out at the same time.
 
It involves a woman who was having her house foreclosed on and then she is accused of murdering an executive from the bank that now owns her mortgage.  A large section in the middle of the book is quite tedious (too much court room dialogue and too many explanations of legal stratedy) but the ending is satisfactory.
 
It is worth reading but I am going to suggest waiting for the paperback unless you are a huge Connelly fan.
