Details: El narrador favorito de Estados Unidos, maestro del thriller legal, sorprende con una novela valiente, aguda y fascinante, protagonizada por un personaje sin igual.

No va a permitir que la verdad se interponga en el camino de la justicia...

Sebastian Rudd no es el t'ipico abogado: lleva arma y su oficina es una camioneta a prueba de balas conducida por su guardaespaldas, que a su vez es su asistente legal y 'unico amigo. Defiende a quienes otros no querr'ian ni ver: un drogadicto, un chico tatuado que supuestamente forma parte de un culto sat'anico acusado de acosar y matar a dos ni~nas peque~nas, un criminal en el corredor de la muerte, un hombre arrestado por disparar a unos geo al entrar por error en su casa... ?Por qu'e estos clientes?

Porque cree que todo el mundo tiene derecho a un juicio justo, incluso aunque 'el tenga que hacer trampa para conseguirlo. Odia la injusticia, no le gustan las aseguradoras, los bancos o las grandes empresas, desconf'ia de cualquier persona que tenga que ver con el Gobierno y se r'ie de las nociones del sistema judicial sobre comportamiento 'etico.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Charles Finch, USA Todayo A #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
o NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE WASHINGTON POST AND NPR
o Featuring one of John Grisham's most colorful, outrageous, and vividly drawn characters yet, Rogue Lawyer showcases the master of the legal thriller at his very best.

On the right side of the law-sort of-Sebastian Rudd is not your typical street lawyer. His office is a customized bulletproof van, complete with Wi-Fi, a bar, a small fridge, and fine leather chairs. He has no firm, no partners, and only one employee: his heavily armed driver, who also so happens to be his bodyguard, law clerk, confidant, and golf caddie. Sebastian drinks small-batch bourbon and carries a gun. He defends people other lawyers won't go near: a drug-addled, tattooed kid rumored to be in a satanic cult; a vicious crime lord on death row; a homeowner arrested for shooting at a SWAT team that mistakenly invaded his house. Why these clients? Because Sebastian believes everyone is entitled to a fair trial-even if he has to bend the law to secure one.
